Well, yeah, pretty much you are wrong. To go after "law-breakers" using pot, you need staff, money, courts and prisons. The federal government doesn't have enough of any of those to put the foreign drug cartels in prison let alone college kids smoking pot. If you're a Republican who believes in States Rights that aren't discriminatory or fuel slavery, then no Real republican is going to want to see our money wasted or the lives of our people ruined over federal pot violations.

Trump isn't stupid. HE'S SMART!! So is Jeff Sessions. When we have 30 million illegal aliens to prosecute and get out of our country and millions of other types of federal law violators, I'd say pot is waaaaaaaaaay down on the list of objectives. So STATES with family farms about to go bust, legalize pot in your state and maybe they'll grow hemp and marijuana and be able to keep their lands. Pot plants require almost no pesticides or fertilizers ... grows like a WEED, so I've been told.

Good for our environmental protection objectives, reduces soil erosion and soil, water and air contamination and yes, even global warming and climate change.
