"Marijuana has been illegal under federal law since the 1930s, so Prop. 19's passage would immediately trigger a constitutional showdown over whether states have the right to act as what Louis Brandeis called "laboratories of democracy." In the notorious 2005 medical marijuana decision Gonzales v. Raich, the Supreme Court ruled that federal law trumped state law when it comes to a person growing marijuana for personal use, but an affirmative state-wide vote for full-blown legalization will not be as easy to contain, despite Attorney Gen. Eric Holder's threat to "vigorously enforce" the Controlled Substances Act no matter the outcome. Legal precedent firmly establishes that state law enforcement agents are under no mandate to enforce federal laws, and the Dept. of Justice simply lacks the manpower to stop pot smokers at anything more than a symbolic rate."
