In reality, an "unconstitutional" law is null and void from the moment it is signed by the executive. The national government won't recognize that nullity until the Supremes have ruled, but that doesn't change the fact.

Guess what? If the federal government doesn't recognize the law is null and void....it isn't null and void. And the Supremes, as you so blithely refer to them, are a co-equal branch of goverment under the Constitution. So, under the Constitution, no law is un-constitutional until the US Supreme Court says so.
Sorry, your opinion of the law has no legal weight.

Our forefathers fought a war to break free from that kind of thinking. Rights are self-evident, meaning they don't need the blessing of the national government to exist.

You are wrong, very wrong, but because you've been trained to think that way, you'll never see the error in your thinking.

You think that just because the national government has the power to punish someone, that means the law they use to punish is legal. The one who knows the truth of inalienable Rights isn't persuaded by punishment.
