Florida and Maryland are each sovereign states, and each are entitled to make separate laws so long as they all fall under the powers delegated to the states by the Constitution, and so long as they don't conflict with the 14th Amendment.The SCOTUS has no more business ruling in these cases than it did in Roe v Wade.
I still don't understand.
Is it because the 14th Amendment ONLY outlawed slavery that it's okay to murder by "due process" if state legislation lays a foundation for a court to rule thus?
And the hypocrisy of the liberals in this area is all we should be talking about. They no longer have any grounds to stand on in abortion law. States should decide. We should use their hypocrisy and the hypocrisy of the liberals to push for change in these other areas. We lost on the Shiavo issue so fine. Let's make this states' rights thing stick. If the feds have no business butting in when the issue is about the life of a disabled women, then they have no business anywhere else. I give us on the Shiavo issue. The glorious liberals were right. So may they live by it from here on out.
It would seem to me that a law that allows certain classes of people to be actively killed but didn't allow the killing of everyone would be a flaming violation of the equal protection clause.
