The legislature of Florida passed a law. The Supreme Court of Florida, exercising its legitimate powers under the Florida constitution, found that law to be in violation of said constitution. The SCOTUS, rightfully, refused to hear the case. The system works just fine. You just don't like the decision it came to.

And Dred Scott was not a human being but was instead just a piece of property. He and his family could have been dehydrated or starved to death if Irene Emerson wanted them to. And that would have been perfectly fine. Is that what you're saying?

Well, that was what the Constitution said. Don't blame the courts for refusing to engage in judicial activism in the Dred Scott case.

You're so fond of State laws, you tell me what his home state said about starving slaves at the time.

Or maybe you'd like to start comparing apples to apples, rather than oranges?
