Legalization of Marijuana

Marijuana was officially legalized in colorado on November 6, 2012. It is now the 64th amendment with approval 54.83 % of votes. It was defeated in 2006 and is now approved. People, mostly teens, joke that they are going to move to colorado for Cannabis because it's legal and they can just use it freely now but it isn't a joke to me. Whether its alcohol or marijuana it isn't safe either way to drive with it and yes its fair now that they are both starting to become legal but it's still dangerous. You cannot also just walk around freely with it, it's not for pleasure use but for medical use, it helps ease pain, real pain, and not just get you "feeling good". I believe Marijuana should be legal everywhere but not for use of fun and stupidity, but for of age people and people who actually use it to help with pain and ease their way through something like cancer.
