You are exactly right, when my mother as a minister visited violent convicts in prison they all admitted being hooked on marijuana.
Recently had to boot out a violent user of pot from a unit who was threatening people’s lives on the premises.
No guns for drug brained people makes for good law IMO.

Were they violent because they used marijuana or were they violent before they ever used? Did they become violent because society labeled them “criminal” for using and felt they had nothing to lose?

Alcohol is a drug, couldn’t the ATF then argue users of alcohol should also be denied their 2A rights.

Making something illegal doesn’t restrict it’s availability, as we have seen. All it serves to do is give the government another reason to deny you God given rights. Private property and 2A rights are being violated under the guise of drug enforcement. Is it worth the price to see dopers incarcerated for possession while making the drug cartels exceptionally wealthy by limiting supply?

These are honest and legitimate questions that should be asked. We were “given” Obamacare because of abuses to the Commerce clause, what else does that slippery slope lead to? Hard core progressives holding office will abuse their power by laws designed to “protect” us (as we have seen under this administration). Moving to a state’s rights position provides a great deal more protection from those abuses and makes it more difficult to establish their national agendas.
