Shooting Disrupts Denver 4/20 Celebration

Members of a crowd numbering tens of thousands smoke marijuana and listen to live music, at the Denver 420 pro-marijuana rally at Civic Center Park in Denver on Saturday, April 20, 2013. Even before the passage in November 2012 of Colorado Amendment 64 promised the legalization of marijuana for recreational use, April 20th has for years been a celebration of marijuana counterculture, and the 2013 Denver rally draw larger crowds than previous years.

Colorado’s two most prominent recent political issues — gun control and legal pot — met during a 4/20 celebration in Denver’s Civic Center Park on Saturday, when one or two still at-large suspects shot into a crowd of thousands of mellow people, wounding two humans and one of their dogs. Not cool, guys.
