Kentucky

I agree that local governments don't have the authority to thumb their nose at state law, but I don't believe that states have the right to thumb their nose at federal law either. That's why I think this is funny - both actions are equally absurd.

I don't believe the states exist above national government. Collectively, the states should have the power to change the federal government (I was under the impression that this was the ultimate goal of the MJ laws) but states shouldn't be able to go against a federal law on a whim. The state MJ laws that I have heard about came about because of ballot initiatives rather than from one dumbass using the state legislative body for his own personal agenda (as seems to be the case in KY).

Government at any level should reflect the will of the people. A national referendum law where initiatives like this could be directly decided by voters would be nice, IMO.
