Dude! Is there someplace around here I can get some Doritos?
Due to their fat content, they’ve been outlawed. Sorry.
Along with 16 ounce sodas.
Yes, Eric Holder has said so.
I don’t know the answer, but I hope someone does. This is a clear conflict of federal and state laws.
I’m not clear on how a state can override a federal law, when there is already a federal law on the subject. Hopefully someone can educate all of us.
I would hate to see federal agents arresting people in Colorado based on this.
A state can't. The only thing standing in the way of prosecution is restraint on the part of the feds. Most laws are selectively enforced anyway.

*scha·den·freu·de. noun, often capitalized \ˈshä-dən-ˌfrȯi-də\. : a feeling of enjoyment that comes from seeing or hearing about the troubles of other people. ie "He delighted in the abject misery of Drug Warriors seeing legalized marijuana."
They'll be sooooorrrryyy.
Colorado...The new Gateway to Gateway drugs and the destination of every undesirable "marijuana tourist" on the planet.

Question:
You’re working a job that requires you to submit to random drug tests. If you smoke the weed in Colorado and test positive for a legal substance (weed) is your job at risk in Colorado?
Interesting question and sounds like a “jobs program” for attorneys....
That's up to the employer. Most test for alcohol (legal), with some threshhold limit for acceptability. We would test setup men for alcohol and pot if they made an error in setup (which could cause a loss of 50 or 100 grand in tooling).
Laws are enforced selectively now...(not like they weren't before...) Didn't you know?

After the boys from below the border open a few ‘Cartel Smokehouse’ chain stores how ‘bout sending them to DC to
help implement the “Affordable Healthcare Act”. Hell,
insurance should have to cover weed too.
The Obama regime rules by executive fiat. They enforce the laws they like, and ignore the laws they don't like. Heck, His Heinous even makes up laws when it suits him.
Remember how the regime came down on Arizona for having the temerity to enforce the federal laws on illegal immigration within the borders of their own state?
And what does Congress have to say about it? Not a whisper.
Congress complaining about creative interpetation of a law they passed under the "substantial effects" doctine of the New Deal Commerce Clause would ooze irony.
I’m not clear where the Constitution gives the Federal government the power to regulate recreational drugs. Didn’t we have to amend the Constitution to give Washington the power to outlaw alcohol?
A 7-11 selling pot would clean up in this affair!
