The problem with that is, mission creep. It's how a war on booze became a war on drugs, fat, guns, and smoking.

Passing an Amendment lays it out once and for all. As the father of two beautiful kids, I'd support such an Amendment. Doing it the way we are currently doing it is unConstitutional and actively dangerous to the protections for our other liberties.

Don't kill the patient curing the disease.

You make a slippery slope logical fallacy argument. We are already well down that slope anyway.

Amendments are politically impossible. We don't need to convince a supermajority. We only need to convince one more Supreme Court Justice.
