“If you don’t like the laws of our land, get them changed.”

When the citizens of states have voted to do so, they’ve been overruled by the Federal govt. or their own state legistlators.

I believe it is fair to say that the federal government does not have the best support for doing what it has been doing. On the other hand, it does seem that universal laws on this matter would be best.

A person moving across five to seven states while traveling, shouldn’t be able to be blind-sided by laws that are more stringent than those of their home state, especially if the penalties are severe.

I’m not a advocate of legalization. I believe we will always have a black market for drugs, unless we decide every person alive should be able to take whatever drug they want regardless of age.

While I would personally see it as a decaying of society if it were to happen, it is still necessary for you folks to elect your favorite people to the offices that can effect change in Washington on these matters.

If you do so, I applaud your tenacity. I would not like to see the aftermath. The sole focus of illegal drugs would suddenly be 100% focused on children.
