To put it simply, prison terms for everyone Holder can get his grubby little paws on.

The one thing I keep telling my friends is that there is no way the feds can let this law stand unchallenged. If the people who are planning on building that massive warehouse/greenhouse in Oakland ever build the thing it will be raided before it opens its doors.
Attorney General Eric Holder is warning that the federal government will not look the other way, as it has with medical marijuana, if voters next month make California the first state to legalize pot. Marijuana is illegal under federal law, which drug agents will "vigorously enforce" against anyone carrying, growing or selling it, Holder said.
The comments in a letter to ex-federal drug enforcement chiefs were the attorney general's most direct statement yet against Proposition 19 and sets up another showdown with California over marijuana if the measure passes.
With Prop 19 leading in the polls, the letter also raised questions about the extent to which federal drug agents would go into communities across the state to catch small-time users and dealers, or whether they even had the resources to do it.
