California specifically having to ban them is exactly why a decision like this makes sense.
If there was anything in federal legislation that did so, California wouldn't need to.
- ceejayoz 2y agoBy that logic, the Feds don't need to ban marijuana, on the basis that it's illegal on the state level in Kansas. "If there was anything in federal legislation that [banned marijuana], [Kansas] wouldn't need to." It's entirely possible for a state to think the Feds have the ability but not the will to do something, and go further while they wait.
- kube-system 2y agoA very large number of things that are federally illegal are also illegal under state law. States have their own courts, sentencing, etc, and often want to bring cases under their own laws.
