Should the Americans of revolutionary times have meekly submitted to King George, and hoped for court to grant them their rights?

The Americans of revolutionary times did not have elected representatives in Parliament - and despite being denied this access they still attempted to resolve their differences within the established system for almost a decade. It was only when the King attempted to take their arms and their ability to speak out, as well as deny them representation that they were compelled to fight.
I don't think you can make much of an analog between the Revolutionary War and medical marijuana.
Of course, all of this and your link to fiddletown ignore the interesting question - by what process should a law be declared unconstitutional and remove the duty of a citizen to obey it? You stated it isn't supposed to work the way it does; but how do you think it should work?
