“So, you don’t think ANY drugs should be illegal?”

Nope. Once the concept that the government can control your ingestion is in place then they can control you completely.

Why stop at some chemicals? Why not allow government to control your salt, sugar, and fat intake? And if it is for you and everyone else’s good then exercise becomes mandatory.

Think I am kidding? I am not. Part of the ObamaCare plan is to require physicals every year with prescribed diet and exercise since your health can adversely affect the cost and availability of medical care.

Let’s put this another way. If you cannot control yourself and your children do you really think other people, read: government, can? Somehow what you fail at others can succeed?

It hasn’t worked yet. Every kid in high school can get pot.

It always amazes me to hear the drug-control advocates say that we can win the war on drugs, when the fact is that not a dent has ever been made in the problem. Prohibition didn't work, gun-control doesn't work, and yet somehow we can make drug-control work? Its easier to distill booze and grow marijuana than it is to build firearms, and yet one will find booze, drugs and guns in abundance around the World! Oklahoma and Nebraska are dead wrong with this lawsuit, if it goes anywhere it will set a bad precedent.
