It depends.. For example when states first started legalizing medical marijuana, the Federal govt was still arresting people for it and was going after the growers whom were approved by the state. The federal govt eventually decided to recognize the state's laws on the matter and backed off.
The Federal govt has the ability to step in or out if they feel like it. Meaning yes this does change a lot, because it's putting out a warning to states that the practice is not acceptable. As for if it changes anything at the state level, we will have to wait and see what the Federal govt does if states continue to violate people's rights with these seizures.
Vendzilla, just wants to be Mr Doom & Gloom as usual and go boo hoo because it's something someone in Obama's admin did.
