Pot is illegal at the Federal level. A state’s law cannot exceed or modify Federal law.

Hmmm...not finding "marijuana regulation" in the Constitution. I did, however, find where powers not specifically granted to FedGov are reserved to the States, and to the People...

Sounds a whole lot like a State's right's issue to me.

Exactly. This is entirely a state issue.

The fedgov patently exceeded their authority when they took on the task of categorizing and regulating drugs and other such substances, and undertook the “WAR AGAINST DRUGS” to protect We, the People. (The caps are on purpose, to underline the absurdity of how the fedgov approaches this problem, and most other problems, for that matter).

The fedgov profits massively from the WAR AGAINST DRUGS, and that is so wrong, on so many levels. I would venture a guess (and it is guess, nothing more) that a very high percentage of the total corruption of the fedgov can be traced to the WAR AGAINST DRUGS.

State’s rights only counts when it’s things I like. If it’s something I dont like, then screw states rights and Im all for the almighty power of federal gov.

Personal responsibility? Not for things I dont like.

Facts? Those only apply for things I like / support. For those things I dont like, it’s all about emotional reasoning.

And this ends today’s lesson on Cuckservatism.
