Independent Journalism in Denver Needs You
We need to raise $25,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
A recent Comment of the Day found one reader arguing that Colorado was awesome before so many people moved here for the weed.
No surprise that plenty of people disagreed about whether this viewpoint represents fact or fiction.

As a native, I think that Colorado is greatly improved by open-minded, educated out-of-towners. We voted against gay marriage, we used to be a Republican state, and now look at us. My opinion is, keep coming to Denver for “the weed” or whatever it is that brings you here. You all make Denver a more accepting open minded place to live.
