Not at all.

Me Q. - Do you know where the common law came from?

You A. - The precedents, standards and customs practiced in the various states. No two states were identical in their common laws.

That would be at post 207. Sounds an awfully lot that you are saying the common law comes from the states.

States invent their precedents, standards and customs upon ratification of statehood?

Your ignorance of history and law is deep and strange.
