No state can “legalize” marijuana like this. It can “decriminalize” it - in the sense that the state says it won’t enforce its own criminal laws against medical marijuana users and growers - but it can’t actively permit it, as this would conflict with federal law.
Not true.
In this case, the state will be actively promoting it, by licensing growers and retailers.
That’s about as “legal” as it gets.
What are the Feds gonna do? Invade the state?
Does this mean that state and local law will not do anything if someone has it in their possession? If so then the only leos that could, would have to be feds. What are the odds of that many feds running around Colo or Wash looking for people with small amounts?

Hussein and Holder might get heavy just like they did in CA. But I doubt it. WA, will keep a tighter reign on it than CA did. Things got out of hand down there pretty quickly. Still I was very surprised they shut so many dispensaries down in CA.
