Opinion | Exploring magic mushrooms — Do we need more ways to legally abuse drugs?

Re: “Just like with pot, Denver is leading the way for legal psilocybin,” April 24 commentary

The problem is Friednash and other true progressives see things through rose-colored glasses. He sees responsible people using drugs at home during the weekend and leading normal lives. He doesn’t see the people in the inner city using and abusing drugs — yes, even marijuana. To be clear, the collective bargaining bill introduced in the Colorado Senate on Monday would not create new unions, automatically raise wages, or force counties to spend money they don’t have . What this bill actually does is protect county workers from employer retaliation if they come together and speak up about unsafe or unfair working conditions.

How could anyone explore that history without mentioning the brutal displacement of native people and the disastrous environmental impact of gold and silver mining? It is long overdue that equity makes an appearance in public schools. Defending the rights of LGBTQ and racial minorities offers our children an education about the larger world, a world enriched by Nicole Hannah-Jones’ seminal work, the 1619 Project.Re: “Who’s to blame for the GOP’s ballot of extremists?” April 23 commentary

After I graduated from high school and received my certificate from the technical center, I started working in my trade: carpentry. I worked remodeling for a few years, then I started building new construction. In time I became partners with the company and I became somewhat of the trainer.

We have recently heard or read about Ukraine “winning” its war with Russia in the media. Ukraine has certainly surprised the world with its bravery and tenacity displayed in its struggle to maintain independence.

Unfortunately fentanyl is very dangerous and very easy to make. A double whammy. It is not like benign marijuana. Should it be criminalized or treated as a disease? Included on Sunday afternoon was an appearance by Chandra Kuykendall with her COVID-delayed retirement performance . It was a controlled, artistic, sensuous and enthralling pas de deux, which resulted in the longest standing ovation I’ve seen at the ballet.

Stanford law professor Michael McConnell writes that the founders instead wanted to protect against government “control” of religion and that they did not object to symbols of faith being present in the public square. This is especially important when we consider that churches are tax-exempt because of the importance of personal freedom.

Goldie’s Act would require USDA to vigorously enforce the Animal Welfare Act and report documented animal abuse to local law enforcement. There are countless reasons why people sleep outside and criminalizing them for doing so does nothing to improve their lives and is absolutely not “compassionate.” I’ll be calling my city council members and my state legislators to ask them to address our housing crisis in the long term and overturn the camping bans in Denver and Aurora. I urge everyone to do the same.
