Supreme Court seems to be in favor of lessening drugs laws. They just read on CSPAN Washington Journal that Roberts and Scalia both think that the drug laws on religious use of DMT are overreaching. Scalia noted that American Indians take peyote ritualistically and the sky didn't fall down. I just saw it in writing on CSPAN and it will be on later today. I can't find the quotes. But you can trust me. John Roberts and Scalia are both in favor of reducing drug laws somewhat. They aren't radical conservatives. I like them both very much.
Justice Antonin Scalia, who wrote the 1990 peyote opinion, said tribes have been using peyote _ "a demonstration you can make an exception without the sky falling."
you understand that the 1990 decision went against a religious use exemption, it was congress who overturned, or tightned up the decision with the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993
^ and do u understand that in City of Boerne v Flores the SC declared that parts of the RFRA were unconstitutional, specifically because of those reasons?
right, and scalia wrote the first one and concurred on the case you mention, so there is no precedent for him, scalia, believing in a religious use exemption that would overturn local, state or federal statutes
