But you weren't talking about immigration until that post.

And that is a federal issue.

You were talking about 'the right to toke'.

Which is a State issue. You really have problems staying on track and being held accountable, and have control issues.

I think there is a diagnosis for that.

The United States is an agent of the several states, and the people.

Not the master.

“And that is a federal issue.”

I’m just using it as an example of an issue where the federal government is not enforcing their constitutional obligations.

“You were talking about ‘the right to toke’.”

No, you brought up the right to toke. I said nothing before you folks brought it up arguing that it’s an enumerate right just like the 2nd.

No, it’s not an enumerated right, and the 21st establishes limits that apply to cannabis.

“Which is a State issue.”

Anything that the states can regulate isn’t a natural right. This is the principle that I’m getting at, if the state can limit the consumption of cannibis, then you don’t have a ‘right to toke’.

“You really have problems staying on track and being held accountable, and have control issues.”

What’s my faith JRF - since you know everything about me. :)
