It will not matter what the voters say. The feds will strike down and pot laws they do not like in federal court.
They will never allow pot to be legal. They cannot control people growing it and not taxing it.
it is not like alcohol or tabbaco. Pot grows with little effort. Anyone and everyone can grow it.
Anyone and everyone can grow it.Not the guy I just bought from, unfortunately! Great seeds were used but the plants got frost bit and the greedy bastard didn't cure it long enough. It still works, but it has a dirty buzz and tastes like hay.
It doesn't matter if the feds strike it down. If the state makes it legal, then the state will not arrest or prosecute. That leaves the feds alone to enforce the laws... which they can if they want to, and probably will... but will be largely ineffective.
Anyway, it has to start somewhere. What gets my goat is that a lot of states have already passed medical marijuana laws, but the congressmen from these states don't move on this on the federal level. California, Arizona, Nevada, Washington and others are a powerful block in congress... yet they stand back and allow the feds to usurp their own states' rights.
