You only oppose federal restrictions on the illicit drug trade?

I recognize that the fed has no legitimate constitutional authority to conduct a WoD. States may have that power, but only if their own constitutions allow it.

My personal preference is that states do not conduct a WoD. But I recognize their potential legitimate power to do so under the federal Constitution.

Produce a single authority or court decision holding that drug laws violate the 10th Amendment.

I couldn't care less what authorities who act outside their lawful mandates think. All three branches ignore the 10th Amendment. Doing so undermines their authority, not that of the Constitution. I don't need anyone to uphold the 10th Amendment. It stands on its own without the help of the corrupt, socialist disciples of FDR you and yours have disgraced our offices with. Until the 10th is revoked per the amendment process, all you have is usurpation backed with the violence of brute force. Such is the way of tyrants and thugs, and will draw NO respect or recognition from me.

Backwards. They have that power unless their state constitutions prohibit it.

Your position is baseless.
