"It is essential that defenders of the 2nd Amendment understand that the whole Bill of Rights is under attack by the Drug War, and that assaults on the 2nd Amendment are a natural part of that trend.
What is the main premise of a gun-control law? It is that guns are implements which are too dangerous to entrust to the citizenry.
What is the main premise of Drug Prohibition? It is that drugs are substances which are too dangerous to entrust to the citizenry.
Both lines of reasoning say that because a few people abuse something, all Americans must be treated like children or irresponsibles. All use is abuse." -From the letter-

The 9th and 14th say nothing about drugs being legal. The 2nd says everything about guns being legal. I repeat, no connection.

The point is, - such rights do not have to be enumerated. Lord, but you are dense.

His letter was filled with points. None of them had anything to do with a connection to the 2nd amendment.

Read the quote above, and be ashamed of your blind denial of reality.

The author probably wrote a similar letter to newspapers and churches substituting "1st amendment" for "2nd amendment" and claiming that "they're coming after you next". "We're not fighting for drugs, we're defending the Bill of Rights!". Yeah, right.

Scoff if you must. - But you have lost all your credibility here, imo.

"such rights do not have to be enumerated"

Well then, Mr. non-dense one, why are gun rights enumerated in the second amendment and drug rights are not?

And if you can find such a reason, how can the author possibly compare drug use with that reason? No connection.
