Well, there's that pesky 10th Amendment....

True, but there's also the Ninth. Which recognizes that we have more rights than the ones listed.

And the 10th does not say that the states may infringe upon Constitutional rights.

John & Jim are a gay couple. They want to rent an apartment in Dave's building. Dave finds homosexual acts disgsting and refuses to rent to them. John & Jim claim a 9th Amendment right to not be discriminated against for being gay. Dave claims a 9th Amendment right to rent to whomever he chooses.

Who is correct?
