Ahhh thank GOD it's over, I want a nice cold beer now!

Amendment 10 - Powers of the States and People. Ratified 12/15/1791.
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution(i.e. the size of your home, color of your car, personal drug use, ex.....), nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

most states do regulate drugs(esp. hard drugs) so I guess its technically legal to arrest people for living their lives the way they want to live them.

prohibition on alcohol didn't work......... either will this illegal war on drugs, and at the same time its one of the reasons we continue to go further and further into debt as a nation......... how long must this suffocation of the constitution go on?!?!


WOW! You're WAY out there aren't ya???
He might not be so far from the mainstream. Most people would probably agree that the prisons are over-crowded and that something needs to be done about that problem. Decriminalizing or legalizing some drugs may be a valid way.

I think there's a wide array of "relative evil factor" (for lack of a better term this early in the morning) among drugs currently illegal in The United States. I believe that cocaine in its various forms and methamphetamine are two of the most evil substances on earth. On the opposite end of the spectrum, I think marijuana, psilocybin and peyote should be legalized for adults. LSD should probably remain illegal because it's in such a concentrated form. Judges should probably look more towards treatment than incarceration for heroin users. Alcohol - which many of us know is more dangerous than marijuana, psilocybin and peyote - should remain legal because of the wide-spread cultural acceptance, but severe penalties should be enforced for drunk driving.

No, I have not tried H, the "crack" form of cocaine or meth, so I don't speak from first-hand experience on all of these.
I agree that cocaine, meth, lsd, x, ex...... are all bad substances, but they should all be legal on a federal level, which is clearly stated in the 10th amendment. I'm not promoting the use of these drugs, I'm promoting the freedom for all american citizens that we have the right to live our lives the way we want to live them. nothing should be illegal on a federal level: not guns, not drugs, not prostitution, not speeding, ex......... absolutely nothing. the 10th amendment leaves those rights up to the people of each individual state, imo this is why so many americans don't care about voting, because their votes really don't matter anymore. if the federal gov. gave the right for each state to make its own laws(without over ruling them later) maybe people would start to care again(at least on a state level). in a state of just over a million people every vote would actually count.

blackshirts - cutting back doesn't solve the problem........ its just like putting a spare tire on your car. it'll help, but it won't solve the problem in the long run.

The Iraq issue is definitely a bigger issue, but this thread was about meth, and i saw no reason to mention the another illegal war.


LMAO! How is life on the planet in which you live on?
:WTH pretty sure we're living on the same planet, unless....... are you from the planet nibaru?

Ever heard of the Commerce Clause? Probably not, huh? Federal regulation of drugs is clearly constitutional under it.
Waiting....

I don't really disagree with Ron Paul, but you really need to learn what you're talking about before you go campaigning for him.
