The real sad part to all of this...
This story focuses on the "drug issue" due to the way too many years of prohibition. Breckenridge is mainly a ski town which is the main industry there. That lasts about 6 months out of the year. They do get summer visitation which has dwindled due to fuel costs of travel.
It would be great if the initiative passed was like the one we supported in Colorado in 1992, which foucused on all aspects of the plant. They could be growing, harvesting, and manufacturing hemp products like the rest of the world could. Kudos to the town though for the message sent. The 27% who didn't support the initiative should move out.
