It was a generalized statement - lots of other factors involved of course.
You are massively ignorant about the issues in this case. You claim that "states rights" should prohibit the federal government from intervening to protect civil rights guaranteed by the federal constitution. Yet the 14th Amendment, section 5, explicitly gives Congress that power. That's why we have a federal civil rights act, and why local judges in the South are no longer allowed to uphold segregationist policies. You also claim that the "husband" should have "rights over" the wife - when he's got two kids by another woman who will remain illegitimate until the wife dies - so he has a flaming conflict of interest. You really ought to stop posting on this subject until you've done more reading and thinking.
