There are a number of military installations that have either concurrent jurisdiction with civilian authorities or have ceded jurisdiction to civilian authorities. Was always an issue when the local sheriff wanted to serve a warrant on somebody on base.

Actually, its in the bill. Section 2 (5)... But Section 3, which amends the code, does not contain that restriction.
To: demshateGod
California has a similar law with regard to medical marijuana. If prevents any state or local law enforcement from helping to enforce Federal laws against people who are legal under the state law. The state can’t stop the Feds from enforcing Federal laws, but they have to do it all themselves.

I don’t think Section 3 amends anything at all, I think it just adds further clarity. Perhaps a lawyer should take a look at this bill?

“Will the state of Texas come to your defense when the feds arrest you for violating a federal gun law?”
The Sheriff of the county could stop them if he wanted to. He could arrest the Feds if they didn’t have his permission to operate.

“Liberals (and libertarians) have been for the decriminalization of weed for a long tine.”
It should never have been criminalized in the first place, it was never a problem to begin with unless you’re one of those people who actually believed Reefer Madness. Of course there’s always that perennial favorite ‘It’s For The Children’ which the Progressives and the Conservatives both love to use when they want to commit egregious acts against the populace and the Bill of Rights for whatever reason.

This will not pass muster with SCOTUS. Anyone remember Raich v Gonzales and medical marijuana? According to Scalia =>
"Where necessary to make a regulation of interstate commerce effective, Congress may regulate even those intrastate activities that do not themselves substantially affect interstate commerce."
Justice Scalia, concurring, Raich

Texas would be telling fedgov to get screwed, just like many states have done with marijuana. Good on ya Texas!

And Scalia is considered a conservative.
Interesting.

A number of so-called conservatives love the Drug War more than the Constitution.

The answer to that question is where the rubber meets the road.
We all wish we knew the answer.
