Drugs represent an attack on our populace, and the National government has always been empowered to respond to deadly attacks through the Defense clause.

I've never heard of even a single case of a drug "attacking" someone.

(Think: "Guns don't kill people; people kill people.)

To be honest, what you should have said is:

"Returning to the people the right to consume those drugs (cocaine, marijuana) which were perfectly legal for most of this nation's history represents an attack on our populace."

That is what you really believe, and that is what you should have said.

You're quite right, the elites that have run the US for centuries were and are drug lords; the Delano, Forbes, Low, Russell families, etc.; of course the established leaders had their roots in the UK, e.g., Jardine Matheson, etc.

The financial elites of course are the ones originating the push for drug legalization today, through the backing of such illustrious characters as Schwartz György.

Have you heard of a single case of Sarin, or Anthrax, or Chlorine, or any other dangerous substance "Attacking" anyone?

Stop with the anthropomorphization. Some things are inherently deadly, and when someone deliberately brings them into contact with an unsuspecting populace they are either recklessly or deliberately putting them at risk of death. To say this isn't "attacking" is just playing stupid word games. It is the same as makes no difference.

"Returning to the people the right to consume those drugs (cocaine, marijuana) which were perfectly legal for most of this nation's history represents an attack on our populace."

Asserting that drugs "were perfectly legal for most of this nation's history" is a deliberate attempt to mislead people about the truth. Drugs were legal in the same manner that Sarin Gas and Nuclear weapons were legal. It is because few had any access to them, and few even knew about them.

It is pretty disgusting that people say this sort of stuff in an effort to mislead people into thinking the founders would have tolerated wide spread drug usage.

They didn't ban them because they weren't causing any problems. They didn't ban them because they weren't wide spread and they weren't widely known. Laws get passed in response to changing conditions, and the drug laws were passed as a result of large numbers of people dying from overdoses.

Stop trying to mislead people about the truth regarding American History and drugs.
