It doesn’t actually end prohibition, it leaves the issue up to the states, where it resided perfectly happily before the feds decided to butt in. People who oppose the legalization of pot may still do so at a state level. Or city, or county - there are still dry counties in this country. This shouldn’t be a problem, and we have been here before.
It would end FEDERAL Prohibition, and it’s a textbook case of appropriate analogy.
Yes, there will still be some local jurisdictions that prevent it’s sale...even use.
But within 3 years of Federal decriminalization, all states will legalize. There is no way they will be able to sustain a budget to enforce a law against when they are surrounded by states that have legalized.
They will yield, of necessity.
Reminds me of that old “are you a liberal or a conservative” list.
line 75:
A conservative doesn’t believe one should smoke marijuana, so they choose not to.
A liberal doesn’t believe one should smoke marijuana, so they try to pass a law so that nobody can smoke dope.
