I completely agree that it is a state issue by the constitution, but where does one turn if the state fails in its responsibilities to protect its citizens? The contstitution guarentees state's rights only if they uphold the resposibilities that go hand and hand with those rights. We went through all the proper channels in SC law, each division passed the buck to another. None were much help. Furthermore, it is everyone's resposibility to ensure this entire country is something for us to be proud of. If we each say "Well its not happening to me so I won't worry about it" not only have we reared a generation of egocentric scapegoaters, but we have also set the stage for a disgraceful country.
Really? Where is that located? The Tenth Amendment says no such thing. The Tenth Amendment only says if the right has not been enumerated to the federal government, that right belongs to the states, or citizens of the respective state

Better get to passing laws you want within your respective state then. Petition your state legislators. Because if you continue to influence the federal government to deal with state issues, not only have you set the stage for a disgraceful country, you're ignoring our founding document and may as well shred it.
