Better, on the whole, for Republicans to be the ones appointing the judges.

RE :”so, drivers licenses and marriage licenses count across state lines, but the 2A is solely a states decision and can, in fact be violated with impunity and cause us to be forever restricted federally by our home state if we break ‘the law’...???”

What's 2A??

This reminds me, notice the lib judges don't apply the same rule to gun licences.

What if states didn’t put marriage in the law at all? If we can’t have it as a symbol of what’s right, then why not move it privately, therefore most head’s of churches could then refuse to marry anyone that didn’t fit what they recognize as real marriage, sure some rogue pastors, ministers, priests, may marry gay couples anyway but it would be far less.

If the States can stand up for themselves regarding marijuana and Obamacare, they should do so regarding an institution fundamental to society. Federal judges think of themselves as gods. They need to be dispelled of this delusion.

To an extent I agree, depending I guess on what is meant by new rights.
The main thing to me about the 9th Amendment is that it should keep the government from taking away rights that we have always enjoyed as a free people.
I don't think it is meant to yank the power away from a state to exercise traditional police powers such as protecting the unborn and defining marriage.
Also, I of course agree that the rights listed in the BOR are not exhaustive, but rather a bare minimum. So I think we are in pretty much I'm agreement on this.
I argued these issues at length with other students and professors in law school, and now I don't argue unless I'm paid to for the most part. It's just too tiring, and there are few people willing to argue a point with an open mind.
I now understand why Justice Thomas rarely speaks during oral argument.

I have an official Concealed Handgun License issued by the State of North Carolina, meaning I can officially exercise my 2nd Amendment right in North Carolina. I guess this means I can now legally carry in New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, California, and any of the 57 states, right?

Right?

Same here.
I have found that they love to spout their bumper sticker slogans but when they are questioned they demonstrate their ignorance on such issues and have no facts what so ever.
In the end they either spout names or just say they don’t want to talk about it.

Either way , if the ignorant and dumb were not allowed to vote unless they knew what they were voting for then the Dem party and Bozo the clown would have no got voted in.

The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States.

Then state's laws mean NOTHING. Get rid of the borders.

It took a devout Christian last week to speak out.

Jeff Smith spoke out about James Taylor, too.
