"I gave this as an example of what would happen, on a much larger scale, if some states legalized drugs and others didn't."

And what negative aspect does this carry? Why is it acceptable to allow for State's rights regarding one substance and not another? Should we restrict Americans from traveling to countries that allow the used of drugs? That would ensure that no American would be exposed to any drug that is illegal in the US.

And what negative aspect does this carry?

It wasn't meant to convey any aspect.

It was meant to point out that leaving the drug decision to the states would not be the same as leaving the alcohol decision the the states. Alcohol is legal in every state. I doubt that drugs would be.

It foolish for some people to say, "Leave the decision to the states" as though that solves some kind of problem. It doesn't. We would end up with the "dry town" "wet town" scenario on a much larger scale.

Actually, I can see the eventuality of an even larger WOD, as each "dry" state requests the federal government for border assistance.
