Possession of an ounce will be against Federal law which stands up most recently at the top courts.

True, but if the local and state police will not enforce it the feds will not know one has it. The only power government has is to make criminals of it's people.

"The only power government has is to make criminals of it's people."

You've hit the mark with that. It's something I learned in my LP activism; that much of the laws we comply with today are essentially arbitrary.

Arbitrary laws coerce individuals into behaving in a certain manner.

Arbitrary laws can be manipulated by their enforcers to achieve political and social goals.

Arbitrary laws create criminals where criminals do not exist.

I beleive ANY laws enacted by our Federal legislature should be restricted to protecting this nation from external and internal enemies.

I beleive ANY laws enacted by our individual State legislatures should be restricted to protecting the individual's liberty and property. PERIOD.
