Silly, Nanny.

You keep using your copy-and-paste to appear logical, while proving the illogic of your position.

You have already stated, numerous times, that you want there to be NO restrictions on any type of drugs that people want to make, sell, and use.

Period.

That is your position. The hell that comes with such a position is your doing.

But you sure as hell can’t lift all restrictions at the federal level and then think small communities will be able to make their own decisions contrary to what is legal at the federal law.

And before you go on some addled illogical reaction, please point to the community in the US that has successfully outlawed abortion.

You see, Nanny, I call you Nanny, because you have been brainwashed into believing that if you lift any and all restrictions at the highest level of government, you somehow free the people to make their own choices. You are wrong. When you impose a Soviet-style mandate at that level, you are forcing a morality down the throats of every state, every county, every town, every neighborhood, every family, and every individual in the country.

You, sir, and your anarcho-Sovietism are the ultimate Nanny.

Roe v Wade didn't "lift restrictions at the federal level" - it actively abolished restrictions at every level. Repeal of federal drug laws wouldn't do that - it would be just that, a repeal of federal laws.

No "mandate" - just a removal of federal law. For example, my community has a 25mph-unless-otherwise-posted speed limit despite no such federal law existing.

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Congress can only impose restrictions if it is delegated the power to do so. Otherwise, it is reserved to the States.

Which section of the Constitution do you believe delegates intrastate drug regulation to Congress?
