Go SC! This just reminds me how our current cultural/political landscape is very similar to the decades preceeding the civil war. That war began as a “states rights” issue. We find the Fed government doing today what it did then, and in 1861 SC fired the first salvo. Today we don’t have to get “violent” we just take it to court, and SC is “firing” a legal salvo at this administration regarding the issue of states righs.
Probably more than ever we are seeing clearly that the states rights issue today is not driven georgraphically, or even along racial lines, but is purely an issue about how much power we will allow the Fed Gov’t to continue grabbing? This country is a smoking “tinder box.”
