DEA, IRS raid Denver-area marijuana businesses"DENVER – Federal agents raided an unknown number of marijuana dispensaries and growing sites on Thursday in Colorado, confiscating piles of marijuana plants and cartons of cannabis-infused drinks just weeks before the state allows sellers of recreational marijuana to open their doors. The action appeared to send a message...." http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/11/22/dea-irs-raid-denver-area-marijuana-businesses/ DEA raiding marijuana dispensaries in Puget Sound region The will of the people doesn't matter. If you don't like a law, work hard to change it, and do!...it still doesn't matter because the government will do what they want anyway. What's tyranny again? |

It's time to invoke the 10th Amendment and throw these fuckers in jail for not respecting state law

Instead of just decriminalizing the plant, as they should have done, they will end up setting up MORE government to regulate it. The bureaucratic apparatuses they are building for marijuana regulation are huge.

In Washington and Colorado marijuana isn't criminal. The federal government is so far out of bounds here. It's time someone checked them. In Washington State, the idiot dopers all voted to "legalize" weed, and it did not decriminalize it. To decriminalize it, all that would be needed was to repeal the laws that made it a crime. Anything in Wa that is not illegal, is legal (law on the books to keep judges from making up crimes). All the law did was reform things. It actually made some acts MORE criminal, and easier to be charged with harsher sentences. In essence, the bill was a huge FUCK YOU PAY ME to people who smoke weed. The states going to pull 25% tax on legal sales, make bank on licensing, it's going to be ran by the liquor control board, and the threshold for DWI is so low you can hardly smoke at all and drive without risk. Meaning DWI revenue. The educated smokers are FURIOUS that it passed. And it's still federally illegal. |

There is still Federal law on the books that say Marijuana is a Schedule 1 controlled substance, and the Supreme Court has ruled (in United States v. Oakland Cannabis Buyers' Cooperative (2001) and Gonzales v. Raich (2005)) that "medical marijuana" is still a violation of the Controlled Substance Act.
If you don't like the law elect people to Congress that will change the law. |

Oh heck, there are better examples than this marijuana raid before it is legal of voting results not being followed.
Many court decisions have, for all intents and purposes, reversed the results of a vote. This has happened ALOT over the decades. There is usually a ruling that what was voted for is unconstitutional in quite a few instances over our history. Doesn't mean tyranny necessarily. |

So instead of a Constitutional Amendment like prohibition of alcohol, the Feds just made classes of "Controlled" substances that are technically legal, yet Cheech and Chong will ALWAYS be denied a permit?

View Quote 1) Federal laws trumps state law according to the Constitution. 2) the judiciary has the power to decide cases where there is a supposed conflict between federal law and the Constitution. Until a judge says federal drug laws are unconstitutional, federal law trumps state law. For a federal act to be lawful it must be consistent with the powers vested via the constitution… the same goes for the federal courts. It is not a lawful exercise to act in a manner or rule in a manner inconsistent with the constitution. (See Article 6 2nd paragraph) Contrary to popular belief the federal legislature and judiciary do not have the authority to make whatever laws and decisions that they please without running afoul of the Constitution. To believe otherwise is to concede to the notion that the Constitution is dead and our constitutional republic has been overthrown and replaced with a national Oligarchy. Which is essentially what HAS happened, but there is a big difference between accepting it and making peace with it .vs rejecting it and seeing it as unlawful. |

It's not a joke. If other states follow suit then the FEDs will be forced to reevaluate the issue.

My frustration is with the State. They pass a law that they know is invalid under current Federal statutes, they accept fees and issue licenses for that illegal activity, and then they watch the poor dumb bastards that trusted them get hauled away by the Feds. Why is the State not being prosecuted by the Feds for being a party to illegal activity?
I'm for legalization, but until it's done on a Federal level the States that legalize are just using people as sacrificial lambs. If they had any integrity at all they would be providing for their legal defense. |

The raids, conducted on a frigid, snowy morning, were the first in Colorado since the U.S. Department of Justice said in August that it wouldn't interfere with state marijuana laws as long as the drug is kept away from children, the black market and other states, among other guidelines.
In a statement, the U.S. Attorney's Office in Denver said the criminal investigations unit of the Internal Revenue Service, the federal Drug Enforcement Administration and Denver authorities were involved in executing the sealed search and seizure warrants. The raided businesses were suspected of violating more than one of the eight guidelines issued by the Justice Department.
