"Do you support PA’s authority under the Tenth Amendment to regulate intrastate marijuana as it sees fit?"

Of course I do - but so what?? I would also support the concept of PA regulating abortion under the authority of the tenth amendment - but I'll also argue that allowing abortion is a terrible idea. There's a lot more things that are "possible" that should never happen.

Once more: my point is that I believe this is yet another attempt to propose government control and additional taxation. If you want to "deregulate" or "decriminalize" something, then just do that...make it legal and then back away. Don't create a new government bureaucracy and claim that you're doing everybody a favor. I would have thought that point would be clear enough in this forum.

So, some FR Drug Warriors don't support that authority.

How did you expect your belief in that first sentence to be clear when this is the first time you've said it? A number of FR Drug Warriors make statements about a new government bureaucracy even though they oppose even a lightly-(or un-)regulated legalization.

Do you support making it legal and then backing away?
