Who said they could not regulate drugs? Buying into your own “mindreading” about me being a supposed libertarian so much now that you are basing your arguments (twice) upon such a delusion?
And I brought up the 1st Amendment to illustrate the FACT that our right to free speech means nothing if State law is under no requirement to recognize that right.
So far from being off topic, it was exactly ON topic.
Two centuries ago people thought that State laws outlawing interracial marriage was compatible with a Government of limited and enumerated powers that recognizes the natural rights of mankind. That thinking carried on for a long time until quite recently actually when it was found to be Unconstitutional - do you think their finding was in error, and do you think it should be a matter for States rights?
Actually, I haven't said that.

If you are going to fling a mind-reading accusation, at least learn what it means. As I said earlier, a question CANNOT be mind-reading.

Of course, that's covered by the 14th Amendment.

Of course I disagree with such laws.
Are you avoiding answering my question about what should happen when Roe v. Wade is overturned?
