You guys are funny. I personally think that pot is not a major problem, and is actually less harmful than tobacco or alcohol. But it is funny when a state makes a law that is against federal law. What are the feds to do?

And this law is NOT about pot for sick patients. It is an attempted step towards getting pot legalized. I lived in the Bay Area when it started and know of one person, who knows of many more, that have one of the silly cards where he gets to go into the store and buy pot. It looks like a drivers license. This is because his back hurts! Almost everybody's back hurts btw. Now I live in Northern CA, and I have been told that for $100 there are doctors that will write you the perscription.

If you think it is truly just to help sick people then you are a FOOL. Like I said, I have no problem with it, but I am a relatively smart guy, and I would expect the Fed to make all kinds of hey with a stupid law like this that basically says who cares what the federal law is, we will do what we like.

And your buddy Rosenthal is paying the price. No sympathy. He's just a pot activist playing with the legal system with the hope that people can get stoned legally. Risky game, eh?
