I am reprinting it from email:<br /><br />Jim Rose has left a new comment on your post "Kent Sawatzky elaborates on the voicemail he left ...": <br /><br />It's not a state's right issue for the same reason the marriage equality issue wasn't. (Funny how some of the people want it one way and not the other) Federal law always supercedes state law. Until the feds decide if they will pursue or re-categorize MJ or more likely just D-list the investigation of it, you can still get arrested for it. While that might not be the answer you want to here, that is the truth of the matter.<br />John Chivhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14325700128778718091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2681108704390260122.post-75017859373587833962016-12-22T05:38:28.870-08:002016-12-22T05:38:28.870-08:00I like Kent and he was always nice and pleasant to...I like Kent and he was always nice and pleasant to me, but why is this not considered a "state's rights issue?" The voters through initiatives, legislative bodies and local governing authorities have made their preference clear. This is our state, and our laws. Why does this not fall under the purvue of the 10th Amendment. Just because he and others disagree with the decisions and judgments of this state does not give him free rein to threaten and tamper with our elected officials. I thought conservatives were for smaller government. Guess not. I happen to virulently disagree with a decision made by Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania but I respect it. This is nothing more than abandonment of conservative principles for political expediency. If the Feds go after those folks in the hills with reckless abandon, there will be issues.Allan Dollisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09398369900020387507noreply@blogger.com
