Congress passed the Controlled Substances Act, which essentially *limits* the freedoms of Americans, regardless of what a state's law might be. (I.e., if a state made it legal to deal in or possess a particular drug, it's still *illegal* to do so federally). The constitutionality of such law if it's been challenged, it hasn't much been discussed.

If that's the case then certainly Congress could pass a federal law which essentially *protects* the freedoms of Americans, regardless of what a state's law might be.

And even if it were to be found unconstitutional, it would take a bit of time for *that* lawsuit to work its way through the system, right?

     Not based on this ruling. Said in essence it is - tman MU - 6/27 10:20:06
          would this current court - meatiger MU - 6/27 11:05:05
               I think they would. That would be a consistent - tman MU - 6/27 11:27:20
                    the court for several years has not been consistent - meatiger MU - 6/27 11:33:00
          no, the court said the the previous court had no right - tigerinhogtown STL - 6/27 10:45:17
               Have you actually read the opinion. It isn't a long one - tman MU - 6/27 10:49:46

                         Exactly, which in my opinion is a good thing(nm) - tman MU - 6/27 10:54:56
                              I think it's one thing to make a ruling in a limited area - Mormad MU - 6/27 10:59:32
                                   They wrote the opinion in that manner, but - tman MU - 6/27 11:04:49
