I think the point is people voting yes think prop 19 will save them from prosecution which is the farthest thing from the truth, The feds will be the feds, but having a medical reason to use pot holds more weight in my opinion.... I see NO benefit in voting for prop 19 when Im already covered under prop 215 and when in fact prop 19 will offer even more restrictions.
EH initially said if you where a compliant medical patient, they will not interfere....But he is clearly stating that does not apply for recreational users.

The more they raid and say NO... the more the people will want it..
I guess they need to remember that people vote them into office and they could soon be out of a job.

I will wait and see if the federal government/congress deals with weed properly and makes it legit all the way/respect state rights. If they do that than I am ok with the posturing as they have legal obligations and cannot appear to just look the other way.

Interesting to see the next few years and I think the issue in the larger US context may be reevaluated and if given a fair and honest review I am confident weed can stand on its own. I just hope the open can of worms doesnt go wrong.
