It says respectively though..

So what? You cannot have "respective" control over something reserved to somebody else. Furthermore, all political powers are derived from the people themselves. To claim that the states, which derive their own powers from the people, may infringe upon powers they do not posess and were never given them through the people, borders on the insane.

The people of a state do not have the right to outlaw pot?

Come on.. When you talk about the federal WOD I am with you, but surely the people of the states have this right.
