But law enforcement doesn't happen in a vacuum.

As we speak, marijuana is illegal.

However, enforcement is limited to large dealers and very dumb semi-public users and 
the extremely unlucky.  The major difference between American enforcement and Western 
European non-enforcement is more in rhetoric than outcome.

Whence cometh the political will and the money to go knock on the door of everybody 
who gets a duck license?  (Which I would take to be a useful proxy for who owns 
shotguns.)

I still say clarity is a worthy goal even as I am forced to admit that it might not be 
forthcoming anytime soon.
