Does anyone have the authority to prevent them from selling their candy? If so, that same body has the authority to decide that marijuana is not allowed. If the Federal government is able to regulate the sale of even a single item, then they have to potential to regulate the sale of EVERY item. If the Fed has that authority, then a state can not legally act against it.

Oh, because a marijuana (or any other) plant grown in one state is virtually inditinguishable from one grown any other state, it was decided that ALL marijuana would be onsidered interstate commerce. Flimsy rational, but that is what the Fed authority is hinged upon.

WTF does "I don’t care what their intent was. I care what it was that they intended" mean? - 11/12/2012 09:03:23 PM 515 Views
Yeah I read that twice to see if that was right *NM* - 11/12/2012 09:36:55 PM 251 Views
Part of me pities Scalias decline, because he could once nimbly and convincly argue black is white. - 12/12/2012 07:09:56 PM 481 Views

The people of WA and CO just decided pot should be legal; think Scalia agrees? - 12/12/2012 07:25:11 PM 497 Views

But you didn't. - 13/12/2012 04:06:05 PM 491 Views
Your whole rant lacks any logic - 12/12/2012 03:46:34 PM 521 Views
+1 - logic is not his strong suit. *NM* - 12/12/2012 04:21:09 PM 204 Views

The SCotUS is no place for raging homophobes. - 13/12/2012 04:48:30 AM 614 Views
Sorry you don't like it, but what he said is true. - 13/12/2012 03:11:42 PM 541 Views
Lol. Homophobia is synonymous w/ homonegativism. It's not meant to convey a true phobia *NM* - 13/12/2012 03:28:01 PM 316 Views
So then what we need is a definition of homophobia? - 13/12/2012 09:56:15 PM 562 Views
Re: So then what we need is a definition of homophobia? - 13/12/2012 11:16:46 PM 509 Views
-phobe : Greek -phobos, adj. derivative of phóbos fear, panic - 13/12/2012 11:32:14 PM 519 Views
Do you have a similar problem with "xenophobia?" Because it's exactly the same thing. - 14/12/2012 01:30:24 AM 446 Views
xenophobia is the fear of the alien... WTF are you trying to say? - 14/12/2012 03:03:09 AM 510 Views
No. You are patently, objectively incorrect. - 14/12/2012 08:39:00 AM 440 Views
An aside. - 14/12/2012 01:21:32 PM 516 Views
Don't believe me, ask a Greek it is after all THEIR word. I gave you some extra capitals, happy now? *NM* - 14/12/2012 02:56:09 PM 317 Views
