lawrocket 3 #3 December 7, 2012 Quotea person who abides by State law concerning medical marijuana Too bad federal law finds it illegal. And thanks to Stevens, joined by Kennedy, Souter, Ginsburg, Breyer and a Scalia concurrence, the commerce clause of the Constitution says that the feds can throw you in the can for even having a fucking weed of weed growing in your backyard. See Gonzales v. Raich Rehnquist, O'Connor and Thomas (those evil doer fascists) dissented. Thank the commerce clause for this one, folks. My wife is hotter than your wife.

Filburn needs to be overturned and bring back some limitations to the commerce clause. Unfortunately he seems to be the only one with that opinion."What if there were no hypothetical questions?"

There's no chance of getting Wickard v. Filburn overturned. None. Of course, now there is the taxing power, so commerce clause need only be a Plan B My wife is hotter than your wife.

Once you give the federal government power, it is near impossible to take it back. For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.
