However, with hundreds of regulated stores selling cannabis in Colorado, we're talking mere technicalities. Although Uncle Sam couldn't care less what Colorado's (Washington, Oregon and Alaska included) constitution reads, in reality Colorado, and the entire nation more strongly, could care less what Uncle Sam believes. Further and more important, God indicates He created all the seed-bearing plants saying they're all good on literally the very first page of the Bible and God's law trumps U.S. Constitution law. Technically, then, cannabis has never been illegal. American's level of contempt for the discredited prohibition of cannabis renders the federal government insignificant.
