But that opinion is not germane to the discussion of how the Fed abuses, or does not abuse, the 10th.

Federal anti-gun laws are based on the same expansive view of the Commerce Clause that makes national marijuana prohibition possible, so it is indeed germane.

I quoted from Scalia's opinion in Raich upthread on this page. Here's a quote from Thomas on the same case. Which of the two got it right, in your opinion?

Thomas: Respondents Diane Monson and Angel Raich use marijuana that has never been bought or sold, that has never crossed state lines, and that has had no demonstrable effect on the national market for marijuana. If Congress can regulate this under the Commerce Clause, then it can regulate virtually anything, and the Federal Government is no longer one of limited and enumerated powers.

J. Thomas, dissenting in Raich

And yet some 'constitutional conservatives' cheer federal drug laws. Go figure.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Thomas gets it right, obviously.
