That makes you a big government supporter. The "war on drugs" has eroded the 4th Amendment, lead to rampant government spending, and limits personal liberty. Moreover, the black market in drugs leads to a spike in real crime associated with that market. If people want to get high, just let them. Do you want to ban alcohol next? Alcohol is a recreational drug, so I guess you want to interfere with my 23rd Amendment rights? You are anti-constitution!Robert Bork calls this position radical Individualism and rightly calls it a rot on true liberty. Read Slouching Toward Gomorra.

Er... yeah. Because the Founders didn't believe in the soviergn individual or anything right? I mean, that whole "We the People" thing wasn't referring to INDIVIDUALs now was it?

I ignore the legal opinions of people who say that the Second Amendment protects the right of the states to have a National Guard, for the same reason I ignore the scientific opinions of people who say that the Earth is flat. Thus, citing Robert Bork carries no weight with me.
