Before pot was legalized, about a fifth of Colorado teens were smoking weed.

The next poll taken, about a fifth of Colorado teens were smoking weed.

The swing is within margin of error...and teens are very good at telling authority figures what the authority figures want to know.

What might be entertaining (if it was legal) is to take the school that had the lowest percentage of self-admitted pot users and piss test the entire student body at one whack.
