Wasn't there a quote about the inmates running the asylum?

I-100 changes nothing because marijuana is still prohibited by Colorado State Law.

[Clp727]

"By approving the I-100, the use of marijuana in public, the use of marijuana by people under 21, driving under the influence of marijuana, and the cultivation and distribution of marijuana would all remain illegal, much like with alcohol. "

So if cultivation and distribution is still illegal how would they obtain their smoke? Can't cultivate or sell it, but you can possess up to an ounce legally.

I bet that breaks your heart, doesn't it? You hippy scum are all alike with your tree hugging and marijuana.

Marijuana is the Devil's weed! It leads to black tar heroin addiction after one use! Nay I say to the marijuana! Nay!

Yep and as long as federal law prohibits it the vote is pointless even if Colorado legalizes it.

Depends. If local and state LEO don't enforce it, you think the FBI or DEA will pick up the slack for the local and state agencies? If found to be an "illegal" law, then it could have little effect over the long term.

The recent medical marijuana case Angel v. Raich showed that while state law doesn't trump national law, since the states have police power they can control how the law is enforced in their state by their own personnel. If a state legalized marijuana, it would fall on the FBI, DEA, and other federal agencies to handle enforcement themselves. I think the budgetary requirements of this alone would be enough to make people stop and consider if it's really practical to continue keeping marijuana illegal...

http://www.norml.org/index.cfm?Group_ID=4516 is a good state by state guide to marijuana laws. As to it being legalized I say keep the status quo
