They can jail you for lawbreaking. Get the difference yet, texbaby? And if crack is against the law.... that's exactly what they do. You say.... well they can't prohibit any drugs because that is liberty and property, but when it comes to nukes, you say, well that's reasonable. Why aren't drugs? Because you say so? Give me the line in the constitution that says NO property can ever be prohibited at any gov level, then argue that nukes can't be outlawed either, since you don't want to look hypocritical....

Give me a line in the Constitution that says government can prohibit anything? In fact in the 1920s they had to pass an ammendment to ban alcohol, and it was repealed. Why 80 years later do you claim that government has always had the power to do that.

Plus the Constitution limits the governments power, it in no way limits the rights of a person. It cannot limit the rights of the people, because our freedom doesn't come from the Constitution, its ours with birth.

Texbaby asks:

If I wan't to live in a community free from crack users, why can I not get together with a community and put together a township, or county that prohibits that within it's boundaries?

Because any political subdivision is subject to upholding our Law of the Land.
-- You can however, put together a privately owned communitarian community with strict regulations on drugs, morality, etc.
Many condo associations would welcome you. If you break their rules, out you go, all quite legally. But evicting you is it, -- they can't jail you.

Our State & local governments are run by 'we the people' pledged to the rule of Constitutional law. -- They can jail you for lawbreaking.

Get the difference yet, texbaby?
-- I'm sure you do, but like paulsen, you just don't want to 'see' it.
Communitarian-ism is a form of social blindness.

And if crack is against the law.... that's exactly what they do.

Yep; - such prohibitions are the issue here.

You say.... well they can't prohibit any drugs because that is liberty and property, but when it comes to nukes, you say, well that's reasonable. Why aren't drugs? Because you say so?

You're going in circles again tex. You asked that question yesterday, and I answered. Remember?

Give me the line in the constitution that says NO property can ever be prohibited at any gov level, then argue that nukes can't be outlawed either, since you don't want to look hypocritical....

Again, -- the 'line' is in the 14th. We discussed it yesterday. -- You left that discussion about cocktail time.
-- Now here you are, - its deja vu all over again.

Get help kid.
