I think we should not corrupt the children and citizens with illegal drugs.
It costs big money in society to have this happening in health costs, violence and civil liabilities.
This irresponsible behavior causes nothing but trouble in our country. This behavior in modern times goes back to the liberal hippie days of "If it feels good, do it"!
You can try and wrap this argument in any constitutional burrito you wish with the second while you drink a 5th, but in the end it is pure cr@p behavior that does nothing good for the country and in facts rots the people to their core.
Conservatives like to better themselves and to be self reliant.
IMO self reliant is NOT self medicated with illegal drugs.
We are talking about the lowest quality of people who are obsessed with the drugs who offer nothing to this country but addiction and dependence.
They need to dry out and grow up IMO!

And by the way, the only violence associated with marijuana is due to its illegality, so if you were really worried about violence you'd be pro-legalization.

You're deliberately avoiding the question. Obviously, you beleive the founding fathers had no way of knowing how bad of a problem drugs would be, and therefore the Constitution should not apply to the war on drugs. I'm just curious as to if you feel, like Gov. Arnold that some restrictions on firearms ownership are reasonable.
We both agree that drugs are destructive. I've known people who have F'ed themselves up really bad because of substance abuse. I'm just looking for an answer to my question.

Do you have anything that doesn't come wrapped in a scumbag burrito?
