Well, whatever place "natural rights" has in this argument, I was responding to a statement by Pennboricua which was: "Way to go, they should do the same here in the USA, when prohibition was revoked, we did not see as far as I know excessive use of alcohol, it was regulated, licensed, controlled.."

Regulation, licensing and control necessarily entail the use, to one degree or the other, of LEO.

In the end recombinant DNA technology is going to take care of the problem of "natural herbs" by allowing for the displacement of the crops you have come to know by those which turn into alcohol if heated to 180 degrees (due to an enzyme produced by the modified genome).

We know how to handle alcohol if not MJ.

None whatsoever, in that it's a philosphical libertarian approach to writing laws, having no connection to history or reality.

BUT, if you buy into it, MrLeRoy's job to convince you to legalize his precious drugs is that much easier.

Sounds like a pipe dream. Get it?

Also, I heard you posited that the reason there was no latex found in the Duke rape allegation case, was because someone at Duke had invented a new material for condoms which did not leave traces. Did you say that?

You are 100% correct.

Then you should have done so in a reply to his post, not mine.

A use much preferable to their use in jailing people for any possession or sale.
