Note that state law has no effect on the War on Drugs, which is a Federal effort. The feds have still been harassing marijuana growers/users that are in no violation of state or local law.

"Note that state law has no effect on the War on Drugs"

In reality, this is not correct. More and more states enacting these initiatives will have a direct effect on the War on Drugs.
