any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.

So that means that states can infringe on federally recognized individual rights?

That's better. NO. They cannot. That is what the whole "Supreme Law of the Land" thingie was supposed to mean. One set of enumerated Rights, like; freedom of movement, speech, and property ownership, that applies to us all. Only through amendment of the Constitution, or in a criminal proceeding as punishment, were our Rights to be taken from us.
