[420 Girl]

It may sound like a dumb question, but opponents of marijuana reform have been arguing for years that federal law somehow prevents states from enacting their own marijuana policies. Eric Sterling has a helpful post looking at how the feds might respond if Prop. 19 passes in California.

To sum it up, we could see federal interference when it comes to distribution, but Prop. 19 will protect recreational users regardless of how the drug warriors in Washington feel about it. Moreover, the personal grow spaces permitted under Prop. 19 will be too small and too numerous to target under federal law. Any effort to thwart retail sales will simply translate into more people growing their own supply.

There have been plenty of complaints from marijuana activists about what Prop. 19 doesn't do, but what it does do is awesome.
