Sorry, but this has to be done Federally, and NOW. We can't continue this ridiculous system where it's legal in a couple states, illegal at the Federal, and quasi-legal in other states. This gets you arbitrary enforcement, where prosecutors have the power to prosecute you, but usually don't, but could if they don't like the way you look or something.

I'll fight for federal legalization. You go ahead and keep bribing cops while the grown-ups do the heavy work.
