...and we're still angry??

I guess I am CONFUSED about this law. I know nothing about it. More importantly whether or not this is the Supremes nullifying state laws or upholding a federal law vis a vis the Commerce Clause??

I am all for states rights for those things NOT in the constitution [like abortion] I suppose this ruling has something to do with the interstate commerce clause........which leaves my head spinning.

I suppose I will have to wait to see which justices voted for which side of the issue and read the entire ruling.

I'm for states rights too. But I think when states elect represenatives and Senators who then create federal law... I think that is one way that states assert those rights. I'm generally opposed to the SC ruling that laws created by a duly elected congress aren't constitutional.
