With that post I firmly agree. We are supposed to be a country of laws. If we don’t enforce our laws, we lose credibility.
Someone actually suggested that the best way to eliminate an otherwise unpopular law is to strictly enforce it.
There are some towns that still have laws on the books like requiring any motorized vehicle entering the town to be preceded by someone waving a red lantern. Enforce that one and watch it go away almost immediately.
Same thing here.
BTW, after marijuana was legalized in Washington state, I got a call from my daughter there. She said that the day after it was legalized her company did random drug testing and fired a LOT of people they had been trying to get rid of. They all tested positive for marijuana which, as you point out, is a violation of federal law and a valid reason for termination.

I think that was General Grant.

My observation is that some people can handle it without problems, and some people can't. Of course the law has to apply to everyone equally, and so that makes it hard on the people for whom it isn't a problem.
