Texas can police it anyway they see fit IMO, plus the fed's (army) can if Texas asks for assistance with contraband if they so please.

So, Texas would be given the task of policing an international border? However, Texas could ask the feds--more spcifically the American military--to help it enforce Texas law?
To: Kevin Curry
Well, yes and no. I'd put the military down there now anyway to prevent illegal immigration. If the US still classifies mexican/columbian/etc drugs as contraband, I dont have a problem with them guarding the border for that, and dont have a problem anyway with them assisting Texas with their border laws.

If the US still classifies mexican/columbian/etc drugs as contraband, . . .What about the aging hippies of California who want to bring in good Mexican weed? Are you going to allow the feds to take over their border and thwart them in the exercise of their free trade rights?
Attention libertarian brain trust. Feel free to help rb22982 out here. Please comment on the proposal to allow the US military to enforce Texas state law, if you're so inclined (ordinarily you would be very inclined).

Copeland was on the KABC morning show this morning. I missed the show but just heard a clip. He is not apologizing. He is blaming Whitman for not letting him speak and is actually proud of what he did. What a headcase.

. . . not all LP members are kooksTrue. There are good, law-abiding, sincere, well-meaning libertarians who simply haven't thought through the libertarian propaganda sufficiently to find the outrageous anti-conservative pro-socialist absurdities that undergird it.

He is not apologizing. He is blaming Whitman for not letting him speak and is actually proud of what he did . . .It was justifiable self-defense--of his unalienable right to speak--no doubt.

The same Supreme Court that gave us "Dredd Scott?" Your law is as weak as your history. Taney was on the Supreme Court from 1836 till 1864.

You just used facts, don't you know using facts can start name calling? Makes 'em jealous, since they're reduced to sourceless falsehoods.

They are the Dr. Spocks to everyone else's Captain Kirk.
I guess when they do ignite emotionally, they burn very hot--just as this candidate did in California.You remember that episode when Spock had to return to Vulcan, because it was time for the mating ritual and he went totally berserk. Tough luck for this guy's girlfriend, I guess.

Are you going to allow the feds to take over their border and thwart them in the exercise of their free trade rights? First of all, weed grows just as well in California as it does in Mexico. Perhaps you mean Cocaine, which would come from Columbia through Mexico. As long as it came through non-Texas borders I dont think that would be a problem.

I realize my position is not 100% libertarian, however, as of now, I'll take what I can get, and generally conservatives and libertarians both agree in a return of government from federal power to state and local power. I would like to further that agenda first.

Speaking of Texas though, you read it's GOP's platform? I agree with it more than the LP platform from what I've read so far (not all of it)

Yes, some real wackos here.About half of the folks on your list died before the LP was founded, more than half were non-Americans, and quite a number are known not to be members of the Libertarian Party. The question you were discussing related to the wacko quotient of the LP, therefore the vast majority of them are irrelevant to the question. I know two of the people on that list personally, Dr. Buchanan and David Friedman, neither one of them are likely to spit on someone, but I think David is the only one of the two who is in the LP.

First of all, weed grows just as well in California as it does in Mexico. Go to Mexico. It's illegal in California under BOTH state and federal law.

To: Roscoe
Go to Mexico. It's illegal in California under BOTH state and federal law.I see you haven't been paying attention. This is under a hypothetical situation with federal drug war ended, texas with some of the harshest penalties in the nation and california legalizes it--this was not my setup but your good buddy's KC. PS I dont smoke weed and I live on the east coast

prohibitionist thugs? I dont understand the question. Are you saying people in favor of drug prohibition will start their jihad against drugs on your hypothetical situation?
