Schumer is a shameless, despicable demagogue, just like Jackson.
The GOP/conservative movement should consider what seems to me to be an obvious rejoinder to these demonizations of 'states rights.' Inherent in these malicious bromides is the assertion that people today, in this time and place, are just waiting to oppress minorities. Inherent is the charge that w/o the restraining hand of our judge-kings, that the people of the South would be forming lynch-mobs, or at the very least forcing blacks back to the back of the bus. Inherent is the slanderous charge that the people are just waiting to put women back in the kitchen, and to bash homosexuals, and to oppress all non-whites, and to impose a theocracy, and so on and so on.
Surely I'm not the only one to notice these obvious and insulting inferences, which logically flow from the statements of Schumer, et al.

They'll get theirs.
