This poster was refering to drug laws in California that made pot legal.
It does not matter in that case. Having a controlled substance is illegal under federal laws which trump state laws. The D.C handgun ban was a state or district law if you will so the local courts can overturn it. If there were a Federal Law that banned handguns they would be illegal regardless of what the judges ruled.we voted and cops didnt like we made it legal.
so police still very often enforce non existant laws.
