Not sure what is accomplished by legalizing it in two states when that does not really change anything as it is illegal under a federal law which apparently trumps state law(

Edited by echo630: 1/12/2013 12:24:56 PMColoradans and Washingtonians respect their state law in this regard more than the federal law. Cops aren't going to enforce the federal prohibition in either of those states. Further, because these bills were passed into law by popular vote, the federal law won't dare transgress the people's rights--they haven't yet, and they aren't going to. This is also a foot in the door for other states to legalize cannabis, and for the federal government to end cannabis prohibition (and maybe the War on Drugs) overall.
