At what point does your argument prove that it is legal? All you are saying is that it is a problem that doesn't effect you much. If you can look at the country and see the blatant oppression and countless lives ruined over a senseless policy, the suppression of freedom and the erosion of personal rights, the patients who are prosecuted for seeking medicine, and not feel compassion, then fine, but don't pretend anyone who doesn't dismiss the problem, as you have, is being silly.
Why is everybody delving into technicalities? So what marijuana is a Schedule I drug under federal policy, in practice the sale of medical marijuana in California is a phenomenon that is not being prosecuted at the state or federal level. So why worry about federal policy when a cop can show up at your LA apartment and you can answer the door with a big fat blunt hanging out of your mouth and NOT face criminal consequences? Some of you people are so ignorant and logic-deficit its unbelievable.
And Heisenberg, I will say with some certainty that the majority of us do not give a shit. Or maybe I'm reading our great community wrong, can I get some opinions?
Chill the fuck out. Never mind crack and meth you need some serious downers man.
You don't think the federal government goes after state licensed operations? You think that all of us live in California? In the majority of the US, you can get in serious trouble for smoking in front of a cop, be criminalized and lose personal rights, and be deigned help from the government in cases like financial aid.
There is nothing wrong with being accurate and careful when making statements, or demanding it of others. You feel that people vocal about personal freedom should just chill out? If you look at the political section of this forum, any news site reporting cannabis issues, any podcast on the subject of cannabis, it would seem that the majority of folks do care about federal policy.
