        This really is a one sided article. The reason this drug was ever listed as a schedule 1 drug is based on falsehood after falsehood.

        Not quite sure why the VP of Policy Research at a small Christian college is qualified to speak on national drug policy.

        I've never been to Colorado. However, please tell the sixth grader that wrote this article that they're not even close to being accurate.
