The U.S. Constitution is the 'Law of the Land', and it guarantees that all states shall have a republican form of government. - Art IV, Sec 4.

States were given NO powers to prohibit 'substances', or any other type of property. -- In fact, the 14th specifically says that states cannot deprive persons of life, liberty or property without due process.
-- Prohibitory type law is not due process, it is a taking, - a banning of property before it can be used for 'evil'. - 267 by tpaine

The USC does not prohibit prohibition. It simply does not authorize the FED to do it. - tex

You are simply denying the constitutional facts as I posted them just above. -- Do you consider this an argument?

"Due process" defined by the handy Insta-Ideologuese-to-English translation service: "No one asked for my permission to ban recreational poisons or private nuclear weapons, and therefore the law is null and void."

The fact that ownership of hard drugs violates the rights of your neighbors is far beyond due process in order to arrest you for possesion.
