But what's to prevent the Utah legislature from changing the law say in twenty years or so? I say a Constitutional Amendment needs to be passed to reverse this SC decision.

I like the idea of placing this protection on an express and absolutely solid constitutional footing. I think McClintock is ginning up the machinery in California to do just that. I hope he succeeds.

As a practical matter, it would seem that state constitutional amendments can be more easily and quickly implemented than a federal constitutional amendment. But I'd support the latter too.
