It’s a nice libertarian argument but we are so far down the rabbit hole of post constitutionalism that starting with drug legalization isn’t the best idea.

Perhaps, but I don't want to spend a great deal of time trying to work on "post constitutionalism" solutions that just make us more comfortable in our oppression.

It’s not like the war on drugs has led to gross abuse of the Constitution! Only a couple dozen clauses and half as many Amendments have been sacrificed to this false god of safety. If it saves even one child, it’s worth every totalitarian usurpation.

You silly constructionists still believe words have inherent meaning when simply everyone knows words are only imbued with meaning by the divine penumbras emanating from the nether regions of the five sacred black robes.
