And these are the tactics that I am opposed to. Whether or not the people of a state vote to legalize drugs is no concern of mine. I would vote no if it comes up on my ballot. However, I am adamantly opposed to swat raids, no knock warrants, illegal searches, illegal phone taps, violations of privacy, roadblocks, asset forfeiture, etc., etc.

Exactly. I don't care a great deal if pot itself is legal or not. I do care that the government acts within Constitutional bounds, which they are clearing unwilling to do in the WOD. If a law can only be enforced via a police state, then the law is wrong.

As am I but that is not good enough for the true believers. They want a strong central government tht would forbid your state from enacting drug and pornography laws.
