Marijuana is Safer: So Why Are We Driving People to Drink? is now available for immediate delivery. It's already #11 on the Amazon Bestseller list for new releases. It may be the best-selling marijuana book to date on Amazon.

Written by Mason Tvert, Paul Armentano and Steve Fox, with a foreward by former Seattle police chief Norm Stamper, the book argues marijuana is a safer recreational alternative to other substances like alcohol.

If you're in the neighborhood, there will be a launch event for the book Sunday at 2 p.m. at 8 Rivers Cafe, 1550 Blake St. in Denver. The book's Facebook page, with 4,700 members right now, is here.

    I love the "driving people to drink" bit on the cover, very clever...my moms used to always say "you kids are gonna drive me to drink!"

    Driving people to drink ain't cool...freedom, otoh, is very cool.  We should be more like Fonzi, no doubt.
