Which is why true conservatives need to work to change the laws
Sadly though they get out on the roads and are threats to my family. That won't ever be ok with me.

At that point the law matters less than what you own and what the popo want. Nice houses, cash, and cool cars get more attention than poor people.

If the goal is to pay for more prisons, more cops, and more trials, while incarcerating an always growing percentage of Americans, than yeah, the system works.

His sentence is predicated on his entire criminal history, not the Instant Offense of trafficking in Marijuana. It's easy to look at it from a one crime perspective but, this offender is a career criminal when the consequences of his cumulative criminal history caught up to him.
Sentencing guidelines is why we have seen a reduction in crime over the past 30 years. They are very effective in deterring crime.

You can experience it for a "rolling-stop" through a stop sign or speeding 2 mph over the speed limit. Hope you have a dashcam. Because you may not even break the law, they'll just say that you were.

They're doing it anyway. Prohibition is a failure.
But youreright. Let's make everything illegal that can hurt us, limit cars to 25 mph, ban guns from public places, etc and well all be a little safer.

Got to love big government conservatives.

Sure, but that's not the point.

How could the transaction make either a victim?
There are several possibilities. One would be a misrepresentation of the product that resulted in harm.

So then what exactly is justifying the current war on drugs?

Nothing, and I'm completely against it.

I imagine that the war on drugs would end, or at the very least ratchet down a ton, if there was no welfare state. I believe your real problem is the welfare state.

That's fraud, and not a voluntary transaction

Conservatives and progressives are both violently in opposition to liberty.

Either way, on one end, it certainly is.

So if he believes that laws should be enforced until they are repealed then that makes him a Nazi?
That's bullshite, bra.

I don't have an issue with this. He knew the consequences of being caught with that much weed and coke. His extensive criminal history did him no favors either. At some point you either wise up or you pay a price. Violent history or not, this guy had plenty of chances. Now he has plenty of time to think about how he threw his entire life away.
