All grants of power to Congress in Sec. 8, as elsewhere, must be read in conjunction with the final clause, cl. 18, of Sec. 8, which authorizes Congress '' [t]o make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing powers.''

We're not a communist country.

What a disingenuous, vacuous response. You didn't address my question. Either you're an idiot, or you're evading the question.

Why would you think that of Roscoe? I mean he's such a big gooberment freak anyway, why on earth would you think he'd flinch from seeing firearms banned if it would further his war on Americans called the war on some drugs?

Ever hear of Marbury v Madison? A piece of legislation repugnant to the Constitution, which, by the way is a set of limitations on GOOBERMENT, NOT we the People, is void from the day it was enacted, not merely the day it is found so, and is not to be enforced or any similar thing. So it's up to you to prove the CONSTITUTIONALITY of the thing rather than the opposite. Just because your FedGov goons usurp a power not theirs to have does NOT make it Constitutional and it matters not HOW many Congressional "findings" you have. You can have 2,302,239,295 and they mean zip. I suggest you READ THE CONSTITUTION before you open your mouth. It limits YOU, the GOOBERMENT GOONSQUADS, NOT we the people.

Prohibitions on dope aren't.

Backward, indeed. The Supremes "found" a "right" to commit murder and call it abortion the same way FedGov "found" some "authority" to prohibit drugs, in the name of racism and control over various groups of people. No one need PROVE a right to self-medicate. FedGov must prove that it has the legitimate authority to BAN something, which it has not been able to do, despite your maudlin drools all over the thread.

Backwards. The CSA is carefully grounded in, among other things, the Constitutional powers of Congress to regulate trade among the states and with foreign countries.

By contrast, dopers and abortionists want the courts to invent "Constitutional rights" for them.

Roscoe, I am really glad you post your drool here. I know of several EX-Woddies who have read your barbra streisand over time and came to the rational conclusion that if you are FOR it, a believer in liberty and the Constitution MUST be AGAINST it. You are really making the case AGAINST the war on Americans called a war on some drugs. Thanks from the bottom of my heart. You do far more good than you know... or intend, if you are not secretly on the side of truth, justice and the American way.

I once had a teacher who was a retired police captain. He told the class about his officers finding a shack in the woods that they were certain was a meth lab. Because it was likely to be booby trapped he felt it was too dangerous to send his men in. So, he called the fire department instead.

How many dodges is this now? Wake me up when you've figured out how to make your case like a conservative and not like a socialist. It's really easy, by the way---I could make the case for you. I've already given you a hint, but you keep on arguing down dead-end streets.

What are you babbling on about?

Never mind. If it isn't intelligible, it likely isn't important.

You think the potential of interstate sale is enough to regulate a product?

Backwards. That's what the drug dealers were doing with their booby traps.
