Ah. So "majority rule" and "might makes right" is OK if it supports your agenda but not mine.

What's next from you? Judicial activism is OK as long as they rule in your favor? States can flaunt federal law if it's an issue with which you agree?

Welcome to your world, the rule of man not the rule of law.

If we're going back to first principles, the DEA and all its antecedents back to the Bureau of Narcotics should never have been allowed to exist.

Even if they had been allowed to exist, the racist little demagogue, Anslinger, should have been run out of town on a rail and the craven congresscritters of 1937 should have listened to the AMA then when they were told they were power-mad, whoremongering idiots.

That every congress since has been too chicken**** to fix their screw up is precisely the situation that the very good tool of the ballot proposition was meant to correct.
