Some people have to have a boggie man to pursecute. If they didn't have one they would have to invent one.

Indeed, and those civil liberties do not include the right to do things which harm others. Taking drugs harms others.

You men drug use harms the user, right.

The drugs do not harm others....drugs are inanimate objects, not capable of doing harm on their own.

Of course you probably believe the same thing about guns. (Guns harm others)

By your logic you are advocating a ban on alcohol as well, I personally know several people being harmed by alcohol abuse.

Riiiiight... and, of course, all this will end when we legalize drugs! I love pretend worlds.

"What rights are retained by the people under the 9th Amendment? Can you name one?"

OOO, OOO, I know

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. --That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed--

Even though this is from the declaration of independence it shows what types of "rights retained by the people" the founders had in mind.

Are you not saying that you want the fed to protect you from drug users?

"Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness (but only happiness achieved through govenment sanctioned means)". No rights reserved. Unsanctioned use prohibited.

I am not surprised, since you are currently living in one.

Where did anyone except PRESIDIO9 say this? Nowhere. This is your own silly idea.

Wrong. It is cited constantly. It is your only dependable argument. You can't prove that pot is not harmful. You can't pot damages the lives of people around it. So you fall back on the "But alcohol is legal" idiocy. Go back and read the thread if you like. There are easliy 20 posts from people implying that I am somehow an alcoholic because I am against legalizing mind-altering drugs. Sheeesh! Your false indignace would be facinating if your cause wasn't so idiotic.

No where in the Constitution are rights granted to the people to do things which harm others. Taking drugs harms people other than the druggie. And you know it.


I don't believe I know of any part of the constitution that states that the people are forbiden to do anything that might harm someone else.

No different from you calling someone a "pothead", "stoner" or saying "put the bong down" to anyone who is in favor of ending the unconstitutional drug war.

Now have another beer and chill out.

First that is a line fron the declaration of independence not the constitution. And it still doesn't say that people are forbidden to take, let me be specific, a substance that might cause them to harm someone else.

Odd; to so readily join company with the likes of this moron, yet anxious to berate fellow conservatives.

I would never "join the company" of a sad loser like Ozzy.

And I am berating Libertarians here, not fellow Conservatives.
