This is a state’s rights issue. If the people of California want to legalize marijuana, or cocaine for that matter, it should be their right to do so. States should be able to do stupid things as well as smart ones. This will be in the former category.
It’ll be interesting to see if California makes an interstate commerce issue of it when mj is legalized.

Good point. But the federal regime doesn’t see it that way. The see it as interstate commerce and want to regulate it. After all, if pot was grown in Central America it should not only be tariff’d but regulated as well.
What they’re really pissed off about is that it can be grown locally. Then they would have no puppet strings to pull.
