In this case, shut it down. I’m not a libertarian, I believe in drug laws.
Why stop at pot? Answer, they won’t. They’ll push for more and more like all liberals do.
So you believe in the big arm of the government to force you to behave based on what you think is right?
If a person is addicted to drugs and can obtain them legally,
he/she is only hurting themselves. It has very little effect on us tax payers.
Only things which should be illegal are those which can hurt others from your behavior.
So do I. As someone who respects the 10th Amendment, I believe that the states should be as strict (or as lenient) as the People desire. If one state (say, Utah) chooses to give the death penalty for posession of a single joint, then that's their right. OTOH, if another state chooses to legalize, that's their choice. W/ the exception of controlling our borders or regulationg what moves across state lines, the feds should stay out of it completely.
So what is your answer to my question in post #57?
