That's the issue I began to see among the medical pot people in California in the 1990s. While everyone among them was publicly saying they were pushing for legalization, behind the scenes, they were frequently pushing "the heat" on each other to get busted by the feds. I was trying to lobby with a lot of those people to get some real support for other libertarian party platforms (like gun rights), and very few were into making contributions, taking action or even publishing opinions for rights other than their own. Some would conduct business in a selective manner, such as buying guns only from libertarian gun dealers, but the biggest ones out of SF, again, were getting their protection from police connected outfits.

The way the feds have jumped in bed with their selected cartels, you know they will remain solidly against marijuana legalization as long as it threatens cartel profits.
