Law professor Michael Greves of George Mason University argues that states are not legally required to enforce federal prohibitions, such as those against marijuana. He cites the case *Bond v. United States*, involving a chemical weapons convention law applied to a local dispute, to illustrate federal over-criminalization. Greves suggests that local officials should stop cooperating with federal agencies to render ludicrous federal laws ineffective.
