Good, it's about time the people revolted against stupid drug laws

[CSM]

For the WOD list!

It is admittedly stupid to run around arresting people for smoking a plant. But ...

Article 1, Section 25 The right of the people to privacy is recognized and shall not be infringed.

What are we trying to say here? This catchall phrase seems to open the door to legalized child abuse, child porn, conspiracy, etc. as long as its done behind closed doors. Aint'a gonna work.

This is pretty much an uneccesary publicity stunt. (And I'm a full supporter of the complete end of the WOD, and all the 1s, 2nd, 4th, 5th ammenmdment trashing garbage that goes along with it) if State governners & legislatures would simply enforce the 10th ammendment, alot of federal BS would stop.
Also, this smells of the school of thought that says "the constitution grants us rights" - which is flat out wrong headed, rather then "the constitution is a restriction on what government can and can't do".

I would certainly welcome seeing such a thing placed on the ballot and passed. Then in ten years or less, you would see the same thing for cocaine. Then heroin. Then LSD. Then angel dust. Then GHB.

And not necessarily in that order.

Bad idea, now and forever.

I am sure Michigan will defeat the measure, assuming it even gets on the ballot.

WOD bump

Although good intentioned, this would have no effect, as DEA thugs will still come to Michigan to persecute those performing activities which are perfectly legal under state law. The New Deal-era Commerce Clause twistings, uh, SCOTUS interpretations will have to be rolled back and the original intent of the Tenth Amendment will need to be restored before such legislation can have any real meaning.
