They didn’t claim their was no law, they said they decriminalized it. Which means it’s still illegal but unenforced, just like weed is decriminalized in many states but still federally illegal.
I don’t disagree with you that people put out bullshit but… Can we not put out bullshit to prove it?
You’re largely correct, “decriminalized” doesn’t mean it’s legal, but I just wanted to point out that it doesn’t necessarily mean unenforced. Just that it’s no longer a criminal charge. Something can be decriminalized and still be in violation of the law and enforced with fines or other deterrents, e.g. traffic violations. You’re not a criminal for speeding, it’s still illegal and enforced.
