The way I read it is that if there is any substantive right that you have enumerated to you IN YOUR STATE then a trespass on that right by the feds could give you standing as an injury.

Thing is, I can’t see any way that cases yet to come that cite this decision cannot make clear for more people how the governments actually operate. I’m not accusing anyone of anything devious, but most don’t understand that the rights you have as one of “We the people...” ARE NOT THE SAME THING as the privileges and immunities you get as a “citizen of the United States”.

As far as I know there was no law in the state that spoke directly to the issue but I'm not sure about that. The opinions by the justices seems to imply the possibility that any PERCEIVED violation of and individual's rights under the Constitution by the federales potentially yields standing for an individual. That may be a stretch but that's the way I read it.
