Our country's drug laws are so antiquated and based on a puritan "Government knows what's best for you" mindset.
They're actually based on racism, but that's not an avenue I want to go down.

This isn't even for legalization. They wouldn't be selling shrooms in CO let alone another state

Most people aren't even aware that the States are supposed have all powers that aren't specifically in the Constitution. That's why I like to point that out. Start down that path. Well why isn't it that way? Well, because there's one little part about the fed regulating commerce. Then you see that damn lawyers over the years have taken that to mean EVERYTHING. Everything is commerce. Therefore the 10th amendment is nullified. But it hasn't actually been nullified. Why did the Founders include it? Well obviously they didn't mean the commerce clause to be so expansive. Then maybe it sets in just how badly these shysters have trampled over the Constitution and killed it and we're all fricked.
You’re making the common, errant assumption that the Constitution was a universally agreed, upon coherent document. It wasn’t. It’s full of contradictions and clauses inserted by various Founders with widely disparate views on government power. Hamilton would probably say it grants the feds more power than we think it does; Jefferson would probably view it more like you do.
I’m not saying I have the correct interpretation; I’m saying that the notion that there is one correct interpretation is wrong.

It all began because of money but imprisoning black folk over drugs became a byproduct of the system.

does organized crime flourish in the absence of a legitimate market?
yes
It also flourishes in the presence of a legitimate market

which is rapidly being legitimized and will eventually render inert the multi-billion dollar black market and its attendant criminality
the black markets will always exist, but when they are the ONLY access to the service or commodity under high demand they make otherwise lawful citizens into unlawful citizens and expose them to risk

A bill to decriminalize low-level marijuana possession in North Dakota quietly received the governor’s signature last week, making the state the 25th in the U.S. to remove the threat of jail time for possessing small amounts of cannabis.

400,000 kids in foster care and that number has stayed consistent over the last 25 years. When it drops to zero get back with me on your anti abortion arguments. Until then it is nothing but a attempt at a moral high ground.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NJ) announced on Thursday that they will be reintroducing legislation to federally deschedule marijuana and encourage minority and women participation in state-legal markets.
quote:
“It’s about time we decriminalize marijuana,” Schumer said in an announcement video that features him and Jeffries discussing the legislation. “We’ve seen with medical use, the states are working. Some of the states have already legalized, and it’s working well there. So what we’re saying is very simple: let each state do what it wants. There’s not going to be the heavy hand of the federal government telling you you can’t.”

10th amendment to th US Constitution. Now you know.
Wait, you think the 10th amendment allows states to enact laws that restrict abortion moreseo than the limits set by Roe and Casey?

There’s a bill that was approved that will make it a felony for an Alabama doctor to perform an abortion unless it’s like rape or incest.
Blatantly unenforceable.
