Don’t bogart that Nanny State PING!

So if Louisiana were to legalize, Gov Jindal would side with the Federal government over the people of his own state.

Ever heard of the 10th Amendment, Governor?

[JRandomFreeper]

That strikes out Mr Jinal for higher office. If he doesn't understand the 10th and State sovereignty over Police Powers, he's not fit for office.

He may be a lot of things, including a republican, but he's no conservative.

The federal government needs to be put back in a very small constitutional box that it came in.

“Federal law is still the law of the land. It still needs to be enforced.”

So Governor Jindal, do you support enforcement of federal laws against prescriptions from Canada?

Under the Prescription Drug Marketing Act of 1987, it is illegal for anyone other than the original manufacturer to bring prescription drugs into the country.

However, federal officials have decided to exercise "enforcement discretion" in dealing with prescription drugs brought across the border, provided the drugs are not narcotics or other controlled substances.

Surrender your God given instincts to seek relief from pain and misery to the state or else!

Don't you dare attempt to skirt the leau! Nanny state needs the revenue!

Louisiana's just the kind of place that gleefully would deny the sick, suffering, and dying, their medical choices. The pigs and boozers put the cannabis users in the 30's German Jew citizenship status once again in the past 6 months.

Obama has created a new paradigm where the POTUS decides which federal laws are to enforced and which are not.

So this makes winning the WH even more important

AshLee Strong, press secretary for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s Our American Revival political action committee, said: “There are currently federal laws on the books that must be enforced, but ultimately he believes the best place to handle this issue is in the states.”

So how does he propose we get to that ultimately best place?

This issue is really mundane and those for legalization are single-issue voters. No need to abandon them. I like Ted Cruz’s position that while he is against it, it is a state issue. It would be one heck pf a chess move if he campaigned on legalizing marijuana at the federal level, which is his actual position, though he hasn’t actually said that federal marijuana laws should be repealed.

As far as I am concerned, legalize it. But ANY offense under MJ influence is subject to a 2x-3x harsher penalty as an aggravating factor.
