Okay then, what about, say, heroin?

Per the Tenth Amendment, I say get the feds out and let the states decide how to regulate heroin, as well as marijuana and alcohol.

Do you agree or disagree?

As a 50 year old person, I can attest that all the pot smokers I ever met or grew up with never amounted to crap.
They are either dead or in prison, or learned the error of their ways.
Pot makes you fat, lazy, and stupid. Not necessarily in that order.
Stupid is, as stupid does. Just keep on puffing on the rope, dumbasses.

I agree and disagree. Alcohol, including moonshine (which I favor legalizing), is harmless in moderation. Heroin and other similar substances are 100% terrible for you, even in moderation, which is essentially impossible anyway due to the nature of the beast.

At the same time, the 10th amendment is pretty clear, especially when considering the original version found in the articles of confederation, ""Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right, which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated to the United States, in Congress assembled."

But then, this being considered, what can be said about DOMA?

Sticky all around.
