This could get INTERESTING. My first reaction was to be appalled, as he’s essentially saying that if Muslims want to mutilate their women, that is just fine.

But instead he’s saying that the infamous “Commerce Clause” of the Constitution that is used to legalize everything from school lunches to Social Security is being abused here, and that if certain states want to prevent women from being mutilated, that’s fine, providing it’s done at the state level, and likewise if certain states are good with tearing up a woman’s private parts, that’s also fine.

Extend this to its logical conclusion, which could very well happen with a CONSERVATIVE Supreme Court and 80% of the federal government goes away, virtually overnight.

Hopefully this is APPEALED and we can get back to the RULE OF LAW in this country.

Thanks for your interpretation, I read it a couple of times and came to the same conclusion.

I’m afraid the “rule of law” is dead in this country, even on this forum.

Had a heated discussion defending the “rule of law” on this thread and was surprisingly fervently challenged.
