Rand Paul is coming out as the demagogue that he actually is. To defend people/persons who supposedly have the ability to know right from wrong when such persons blatantly/knowingly do anti social acts is beyond the pale of honesty for even a conniving politician. It could be that such persons actually do not realize their own cultural and behavior deficiencies but to postulate and propagate such is the fault of other persons is certainly not a socially responsible thinking of a person who believes he has the social cure as POTUSA.

No you should . It’s the same old crap of you keep saying the same thing on here while trying to paint Paul as a conservative of which he is not.

Stop that. I haven't said anything about Paul other than he and Cruz have the same position on pot at the federal level.

Why is this getting hard for you to understand Ken.

One is for drugs to be legal and the other does not want drugs lega.

Is that clear enough for you because I am not the only one on this thread which has told you this?

You know as well as us that you are trying to pain Cruz as the same position as Paul when clearly they are not.

Explain how Paul and Cruz differ on pot at the federal level.

Both want pot to be decided by the states, yes? How can you do that without legalizing at the federal level? You can't.

‘He was born gay.’ I’m sorry, I utterly disagree. I don’t think biology has the slightest influence on the whole. I think it is entirely environmental - from fatherless homes (because the baby daddy wanted to be there, but he just had to cap the ass of someone who deserved it...) to politicians who play the race card like a concert violinist.

You’re as bad as they are, making excuses for their behavior based upon biology. I’ve a brother in law who has Downs. Even he understands that his actions have possible repercussions. And I’ll certainly wager he’s got more biological issues.

You have studiously avoided addressing how they differ at the federal level.

Americans congenitally cannot even consider a biological basis for human behavior. Hence we are eternally victims of the corrupt politician and his megaphone, the media.

The best reason to repeal the drug laws is to keep the criminal Feds out of it. Give the states the right to decide and the power to enforce. Right now, the Feds are devouring all conceivable state and individual rights and the Feds are using their power to create the ultimate police state.
When legal differences arise with respect to different laws in the states, as originally intended, the federal courts can act as arbiters. We certainly don’t need Federal Gestapo agencies with their SWAT teams and civil forfeiture powers to adjudicate and enforce the laws for the whole country.
As far as drug addiction is concerned, this problem will never, ever, be mitigated by the Federal Gestapo agents. Only a return to God and moral living will suffice. Sure, we will have stupid states with stupid drug laws, but I thought that was the whole point of federalism; 50 different laboratories of government.
