You seem to have decided to start working both sides of the debate, asking questions and then providing your own answers. Maybe this time it will turn out like you want it.

I asked questions, you gave answers (which I found illogical), and I restated them for clarification. I was working off you position that it "wasn't about 'Legalization'", but about putting things back where they belonged.

Apparently you think I misstated your position. Please amplify. I'll make them simple, so I don't get confused, please respond by number.

1. Are you for or against the legalization of drugs?

2. Is the problem, as it relates to the thread, that there is abuse or that the wrong government is involved in the abuse?

3. Do you believe the Federal government has the Constitutional power to regulate and/or prohibit the imports from abroad?

4. What if any authority do you believe the FBI should have?

Now if you can answer those, per the numbers, I won't have to restate things for you in order to grasp your positions.

1. Are you for or against the legalization of drugs?

Loaded question. If I say I'm for it, then you tell me I don't have anything to complain about. If I say I'm against it, I want to see babies hooked on crack.

2. Is the problem, as it relates to the thread, that there is abuse or that the wrong government is involved in the abuse?

Another loaded question. Whichever one I choose, you'll deride me for not caring about the other.

3. Do you believe the Federal government has the Constitutional power to regulate and/or prohibit the imports from abroad?

That one may be loaded too. Is this a choice between no power an all, and unlimited power for any reason (or none at all)?

4. What if any authority do you believe the FBI should have?

They should have the power to investigate federal crimes.
