No.
But I support criminal sanctions for possession, use, and distribution of marijuana. And other drugs that make us insensible, irrational, lethargic, paranoid, or tend to make us hallucinate.
I’d support heavier sanctions on the stronger drugs; for example crack would get a heavier penalty than pot. It works faster and more intensely.
That doesn’t mean I support warrantless searches nor the presumption of guilt by taking people’s money and/or property. I don’t support that for any crime, no matter how serious.
That's what the Justice Department under the supposedly conservative Bush adminstration went before the USSC and argued to uphold to in order to keep medical marijuana illegal.
Before you buy into anything, know what it's costing you.
What’s your position on whiskey?
You mean, like alcohol? We tried that, and afterward it seemed like such a terrible idea we undid it. Alcohol makes people insensible, irrational, lethargic, and some paranoid and a very few, hallucinate. All of the above.
All federal drug laws are unconstituional. As is much that the Fedgov does.

don’t generelize... substance abuse follows the ten percent rule. Meaning 90% of users of any substance, are fine and are not chronic abusers. I’m not including heroin in this equation.
The effects of smoking pot, are short lived... unless you are in contact with a chronic abuser. Most people who smoke aren’t paranoid, irrational or lethargic... either you’ve watched too many stoner movies or you know a stoner.
