What constitutional questions are there? I oppose FED regulations, because they are unconstitutional. The states, however have the full constitutional ability to prohibit substances, so long as they remain representative republics.

Thus, -- you now admit that our constitution protects us from federal efforts to ban substances?
How inconsistant can you get? Just a few posts ago you were defending the federal narcotics acts.

Only defending why it was done. I never said it was constitutional.

Very well, you admit to defending unconstitutional acts. Thank you.

Shut up.... I never said I supported it.

I should 'shut up' about your admitted defense of unconstitutional acts?
-- I'd say your irrational denial of not 'supporting' acts you defend is worth speaking about on a site dedicated to defending the constitution.

Not so. The states are bound by the same constitutional bounds as the feds, according to the Supremacy Clause, and the 14th Amendment.

How many times must you be informed of these basic facts, aggie?
