Chas.

It gets worse when it becomes OC demonstrators protesting for legal weed.

I favor OC. Additionally although I hate drugs and what they do to people, I think the "war on drugs" is an abject failure. So maybe legalization..... or at least decriminalization....is the way to go.

THAT SAID.....

It is an absolutely HORRIBLE idea to conflate gun rights and drug "rights" in public policy debates. All it does is convince the vast majority of people who remain in the middle ground and whom can still be persuaded one way or another that conflating these two issues is proof positive that 2nd Amendment advocates are crazy.

Novel concept. Maybe we ought to put that in writing.

It's already in writing:

Amendment 10 - Powers of the States and People

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

The daggum federal gummint just needs to start honoring the Constitution again.
