The presidential campaigns of Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich announced late Sunday that they were coordinating their efforts in three upcoming primary states in an extraordinary attempt to prevent Republican front-runner Donald Trump from clinching the GOP nomination before this summer's convention.

In a pair of simultaneously released statements, the campaigns announced that Kasich would pull out of Indiana to give Cruz "a clear path" ahead of that state's winner-take-all primary May 3, while the Cruz campaign will "clear the path" for Kasich in Oregon, which votes May 17, and New Mexico, which votes June 7.

The reason pot is 'illegal' is; --- majority rules advocates (like gatlin and grandisland) are convinced that they can ignore our Constitution and decree ANYDAMNTHING (including guns) too dangerous for we the people to possess..

They're all crazy anti-constitutionalist idiots, too stupid to even argue the issues.

And the reason people get shot over commercial amounts of pot is that it's illegal -

That is a patently absurd statement … you don’t know that. It could be the case sometimes. But you also don’t know the reason these people may have been shot was that marijuana “use” could have contributed to and caused the aggressive and violent behavior.

What … marijuana contributes to aggressive and violent behavior. Well, yes … it does!

Studies have repeatedly shown that marijuana contributes to the likelihood of aggressive and violent behavior. An article published in the Journal of Addictive Behaviors reported that “marijuana is clearly the drug with the most evidence to support a direct intoxication-violence relationship.”

Colorado legalized marijuana for recreational use. The CDC reports there are more than 134,000 annual deaths in Colorado attributed to marijuana use alone and this figure does not include accidental deaths and the deaths by gunshot shows no relationship to “illegal commercial amounts of pot.” One can safely surmise that the reason 134,000 annual deaths in Colorado, of which some to many were shot, was not people getting shot over commercial amounts of pot is that it’s illegal.

Unsourced lies from the hilariously stupid "Marijuana Makes You Violent" web site. Here's some truth from the Department of Justice (no fans of marijuana): "Of all psychoactive substances, alcohol is the only one whose consumption has been shown to commonly increase aggression. [...] Marijuana and opiates temporarily inhibit violent behavior" (publication NCJ 145534, https://www.ncjrs.gov/txtfi les/psycho.txt)

CDC warns of marijuana consumption in report citing teen's Colorado death

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in a report released Friday, says the case of a teen who leaped to his death from a Denver hotel balcony after eating marijuana-infused cookies illustrates "a potential danger" with edible pot.

The CDC, along with a Colorado health official and Denver's medical examiner's office, said the death suggests the need for greater public health education to discourage marijuana overconsumption.

Levy Thamba, a 19-year-old student at Northwest College in Powell, Wyo., died at a Holiday Inn in northeast Denver in March 2014. Officials say his friends tried to calm him down before his fatal four-story leap.

The city's coroners listed "marijuana intoxication" from cannabis-infused cookies as a significant condition contributing to Thamba's death.

His death was classified as an accident.

That’s funny ... him calling you "grampa." He is obviously trying to ignore his aging process. He hasn’t learned that age denial is not emotionally healthy while relentlessly chasing the fountain of youth. But, this is only one of his emotional problems. He is much closer to 70 than he is to 60. The Web showed he was 65 when he donated $500 to the Ron Paul campaign. Hmm, how many years ago was that? He has always displayed real struggles in life, now it is with adulthood. He definitely is not behaving in a way that is as calm and wise as people expect from someone of his age. But then, “he is what he is.”

A new study of marijuana drug use in Colorado found increases in marijuana-related traffic deaths, hospital visits, school suspensions, lab explosions, and pet poisonings. The study was conducted by a federal government program. The 166-page report released this month analyzed the effects of legalizing marijuana for medical and recreational use in Colorado spanning the time period from 2006 to the present. Along with the state of Washington, Colorado is considered as something of laboratory in which the effects of legalizing marijuana use can be studied. The study showed that the number of drivers testing positive for marijuana increased 100 percent from 2007 to 2012, with marijuana-related fatalities doubling from 37 to 78. Traffic fatalities total around 500 a year in the state.

One of the reports key findings was that the number of children aged zero to five exposed to marijuana increased 268 percent when comparing the period from 2006 to 2009 to the period from 2010 to 2013: triple the national average. The report showed that more young people aged 12 to 17 were using marijuana as well. When asked during a national survey in 2012 whether they had used marijuana in the past month, 10.47 percent of Colorado’s youth said they had, which was 39 percent higher than the national average.

“I never dreamed in a million years that this would happen to my son,” Kendal, a parent who didn’t want to use his last name, told CBS, referring to a time when he came home to find his 13-year-old son unconscious from what he says was a marijuana overdose.

“He was gray. His heart wasn’t beating and he wasn’t breathing,” Kendal said.

Kendal used CPR to resuscitate him, and later talked to his son’s high school peer and supplier.

Marijuana-related emergency room visits grew 57 percent in two years, from 8,198 in 2011 to 12,888 in 2013, the study found, with a 29 percent increase in emergency room visits for teens.

The report also found that drug-related suspensions and expulsions increased 32 percent between the 2008-2009 and 2012-2013 school years. The majority of expulsions were for marijuana violations.

From 2006 to 2008, there were 1,000 to 4,800 medical marijuana cardholders and no known dispensaries in Colorado. As of the end of 2012, there were 108,000 cardholders and 532 licensed dispensaries.
