    No. If the supreme court makes a ruling that is so unpopular that people don’t follow it, then people won’t follow it.

    Not the Supreme Court, but cannabis is still a Schedule 1 controlled substance. That didn’t stop states from legalizing it because of how unpopular prohibition is. The federal government knows this, which is why we don’t see massive retaliation against states with legal weed.

    Government and its enforcement is way more communal than people realize.
