Marijuana-Infused Candy

Colorado parents have to especially worry about their children trick or treating this Halloween, as concerns over marijuana-infused candy rise in the legal state.

According to a video on the Denver Police Department's Facebook page, parents are encouraged to check all candy for tampered wrappers.

This last part, of course, is nothing new. I remember when I was a child and my parents would check every single piece of candy before I ate it, because it was so easy for people to mess with candy.

When I was younger, I used to think this was too precautionary; I didn't understand why my parents didn't trust the world the way I did. But as I've grown older and seen the horrors they have, it's no wonder why we have to worry; we have to worry about people who would drug innocent children celebrating a holiday.
