I know that. I also know that the federal government was never intended to be a vehicle to erase state laws that other states disagree with, even if it’s something evil like abortion.

So I take it if a state passed a law banning any form of hate crimes statute, you’d have no problem with the federal government stepping in and stopping them? Conservatives have yet to learn that their love of federal power cuts both ways.

Abortion is evil, but so is the loss of states rights.

sounds like moral equivalence. I’m not an anarchist but there is nothing ‘moral’ about a state.
