“So conservatives now believe that the majority can just tell the rest of the folks how to live their lives?”

You live in a Constitutional Republic. The people are represented by the people they elect.

Through this not so novel concept, we have illegal drugs.

We don’t get to choose which laws we will obey and which we will not. Well, just don’t get caught.

So, you liberaltarians now want to pick and choose which laws you obey, kind of like illegal immigrants and common criminals.

The people are represented by the people they elect.

And those representatives take an oath to live by certain limitations laid out in the Constitution.

None of those limitations allow for drug prohibition.

Epic Constitution fail on your part.

Right, we live in a Constitutional Republic. The Constitution doesn't give Congress the power to regulate drugs.

I don't want to disobey the law. (I don't use drugs anyway). I want unconstitutional laws repealed simply because I believe in the Constitution.
