Poll: Colorado Wants Marijuana Legalized, Regulated Like Booze and Smokes

even though the federal law does not allow legal cannabis - that law can be challenged - and is - and, frankly, b/c of the way it was written - it deserves to be challenged.

the states regulate intrastate commerce.

For fifteen years now more than one state has regulated medical marijuana - and the federal govt has not been able to stop this, even tho they interfere from time to time.

The people in various states have already told the federal govt that their law and their authority about this situation is based upon lies and is, therefore, unjust and not worth following.

This only happened because the federal govt is so beholden to special interests that its officers cannot function to act in the best interests of voters.

this is a clash between state and federal powers - and, frankly, the American people are on the side of those states that are changing the law.

When bad law is allowed to stand - this is what happens.
