How is that a straw man (it’s two words) argument? I made a list to a proponent of Prop 19 the other night about what should be in any legalization law. The person just ignored it. Don’t tell me that any law legalizing drugs is libertarian. If you want a law legalizing drugs, why do you make it explicit that a person’s voluntary use of drugs does not infringe on the rights or property of anyone else, and that voluntary use of drugs means the person will never accept any taxpayer money for that use. Until you are willing to do that, it’s just another socialist law, not matter how, “lame man,” you think I am. If you can’t agree to those conditions, you are just riding the gravy train.

Did they do this when Alcohol Prohibition was repealed ?
I see no mention of any of these things in the 21st Amendment.
