"-- my statements stands."

I believe I am correct in stating that a majority of the Supreme Court determine what the Constitution means.

Nope, your statement 'stands' refuted, --
-- The USSC can issue their legal opinions, but if the 'law' in question is repugnant to the basic principles of our constitution, no one need honor or obey their 'determination'.

This safeguard is part of our 'checks & balances'. -- Which states should be using to protect their powers.

Politically, states lack the will to fight the feds. - Which is a damn shame.
But this is not a fault in our constitution..
