This is so silly. So you have a "Drug" that is schedule 1 (which has no medicinal purpose) that is now selectively enforced by the Feds depending on your locale. If you are in Cali, nothing to worry about - if you are in Kansas bend over and grab your ankles.
So what you have is a Federal law (predicated on the assumption that Cannabis (A) The drug or other substance has a high potential for abuse. (B) The drug or other substance has no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States. (C) There is a lack of accepted safety for use of the drug or other substance under medical supervision." No prescriptions may be written for Schedule I substances) that is being ignored for certain people in certain states while being applied to others. If you agree that cannabis is medicine (which they are by recognizing prescriptions) - then you agree that it is not schedule 1. If it is not schedule 1 than why is ANYONE in the United States prosecuted as if it is? I wish they would end this pointless ineffective drug war. It has been shown that treatment is more successful and CHEAPER than incarceration.
If you are one of the 14 states that have medical cannabis this is great news for you - for your brothers in the other 36 states they will still be prosecuted for possession or sale of a schedule 1 drug. Can we say delusional?
