Too bad Jefferson wasn't able to convince the other Founding Fathers of his reason and logic. If he did, you might have had a point.

Apparently the founders knew as well as Jefferson and thus didn't include the power for government to prohibit any object but only to regulate interstate commerce.

Unless, of course, you can reference the entire text and post it. Lacking that, the quote is worthless.

You just love to frame the debate to suit your constitution-is-a-living-document ideology.

I've asked you several times to explain how drugs in a person's home harms you. Not aspirin, valium or other over the counter or prescribed drugs, though those too can be abused, but how illicit drug possession harms you. To no avail. You can't explain because you haven't been harmed. When you do respond it's typically your authoritarian and/or communitarian twisted logic and perversion of honest justice.

And I responded that our laws are not limited to those which prohibit harm to others. You wish to reframe and restrict the debate to behavior which harms others.

Ain't gonna happen.
