Legal Pot, Colorado, Washington

What's most important is that it sends a message to congress that increasingly, people want legalization.

Had the democrats gained control of the house of representin', I would have predicted federally legalized pot by the end of Obama's term. Unfortunately that will probably never happen.

It is possible, broski.

If it's federally legal, would that mean that all states have to have it legal or can states still choose that? Just wondering, not that I actually want this.

That may fall under nullification. But if it were federally legal, they could choose to sell or not to sell or restrict the way some dry counties do with alcohol.

Just grow pot in the spare rooms of your houses, like regular smart people.

I think that situation is less clear-cut. I think the fed can give the states the right to choose, but they would basically just do that by removing pot from the CSA. If there were a federal law saying that pot is legal, it would require some sort of footnote for states to be able to go against that. That is how I understand it, at least.

Let's get blitzed

So other than the ability to smoke pot while walking down the street, what does this even do?
