      Isn’t this almost never enforced? You’d have to be caught by federal law enforcement with both on you, which seems incredibly unlikely.

      IIRC this is mainly used as a foot in the door to get people on more serious charges, like Al Capone w/ tax evasion.

      Not defending it, as #1 the federal government doesn’t have the power to criminalize or regulate marijuana in the first place, and #2 it’s a gross violation of your rights.
