Thank you for that lovely bit of sophistry. As long as we’re making corrections - you do know that states do not have rights - they have powers. People have rights.

And the correct wording of the Tenth Amendment is: “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.
