"Attorney General Eric Holder says the federal government will enforce its marijuana laws in California..."

...unless the offender belongs to the New Black Panthers.

Given what’s in store for CA, we need to legalize marijuana just so we can get stoned enough to cope with what our pols intend to do to us.

Under federal law, marijuana is still strictly illegal. The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the federal government has the right to enforce its ban regardless of state law.

But AZ can't enforce illegal immigrant issues?

A blatant violation of State’s Rights.

However, the Nanny State Sycophants will be happy.

The federal government has no authority whatsoever to ban or otherwise regulate sales of marijuana within any state. None. If California or any other state wants to legalize or otherwise decriminalize drugs, then the federal government has no authority to intervene if the drugs are produced and consumed within the same state.

Since the Feds fail at everything they do except the military, I would not be too worried about it if I lived in California. Since Dept of Justice attorneys are media whores, they will only go for the high profile cases that give them face time with the press.

I think I am actually going to vote yes for this.

it will bring about another state's rights problem for Obama which will help other states for things like immigration, health care, etc?

The States should arrest the Feds and force a crisis. To Hell with the Drug War, it’s all about power.

Wasn’t “states rights” the root cause behind the First Civil War?

The way I understand it, several states endorsed a certain unpalatable farming practice that other states and Big Brother opposed. But they wouldn’t abandon that practice so Big Brother picked a fight with them and eventually beat them into the ground, leading to the eventual outlawing of the practice.

Or so I’ve heard.

They can both go piss up a rope.
