What if a state wished to allow prayer in public schools or a Nativity scene at Christmas or the Confederate Flag? They cannot do that today.
Five justices on the USSC have already made those decisions for 300,000,000 Americans.
Government doesn't get much more centralized and unaccountable than that.
--- The states were where the citizens had the greatest influence. And if their state didn't offer the freedom and liberty they were looking for, they could move to another state.
And if ~all~ the States agreed with the feds to ignore our RKBA's and didn't offer the freedom and liberty people were looking for, they could move to another country. -- Yea sure.. Dream on.
And it is a weird dream. Why does anyone ~want~ States to have the power to restrict the amount of the freedom and liberty they "offer"?
Perhaps the majority of the citizens of a state wish to prohibit [regulate] abortion or nude dancing or sodomy or flag burning in their state.
They cannot do that today.
They can do that today. -- They can 'reasonably regulate' such activities as long as they use due process under constitutional law.
What if a state wished to allow prayer in public schools or a Nativity scene at Christmas or the Confederate Flag? They cannot do that today.
They can do that today, as I outlined above.
You just want to insist they cannot, - in order to further your 'majority rule' agenda.
Five justices on the USSC have already made those decisions for 300,000,000 Americans.
Yep, that's part of your anti-constitutional 'line'.
Which brings us back to the question, -- why does anyone ~want~ States to have the power to restrict the amount of the freedom and liberty they "offer"?
