Denver Group Trying To Allow Pot Smoking In Airport Lounges

DENVER -- Members of a Denver-based, pro-marijuana group announced their recommendation to solve the growing problem of alcohol abuse on planes: provide marijuana smoking lounges in airports nationwide.

When U.S. Attorney Troy Eid tackled the topic of people drinking too much on planes Monday, pot wasn’t the solution he had in mind, but Mason Tvert with SAFER, Safer Alternative For Enjoyable Recreation, said maybe he should think about it.

"In hopes of quelling the growing concern of drunk and disorderly passengers," said Tvert.

He points to the woman arrested at Denver International Airport last week.

Court records show she started smoking a cigarette on the plane, yelled obscenities and punched a flight attendant, then blamed the flight crew for serving her vodka.

"This madness has got to stop and we're providing a very viable solution," said Tvert.

He points to a study showing a strong link between alcohol and increased violence, while cannabis reduces the likelihood of violence.

But officials said there is a major flaw in his plan.

"Until such a time when marijuana is a legal drug, the answer is no. Plain and simple," said Mike Fergus, a Federal Aviation Administration spokesman.
