Question by Anti_Censorship: Since the Constitution specifies that policing power is to be left only to States, why have federal drug laws?
During the birth of the US Constitution, it was understood that people had the right to do what they wanted with their own minds and bodies. Why do we now have federal drug laws against marijuana which puts more “offenders” into prisions wasting taxpayer money? Do we really want the government making personal decisions for us?
People smoking marijuana privately in their own homes without causing a problem does not constitute anything close to interstate commerce.
