Why would you think I wanted the Feds to do any of that?

Oh, for silly little things like freedom and liberty and crap like that.
To think that the fedgov must defer to the States on issues like these is beyond naive. When Obama decreed a state can not enforce state and federal laws regarding immigration, what did Arizona do? They capitulated. And when Obama will issue E/O’s regarding the 2nd Amendment that violate state and federal laws, what will happen? Same thing. Each state will go; “Baaaa”, and will follow along.
The point? Ignore states rights and deal with the power that controls us. And that’s why we need the Feds to uphold the values that made us great.
“And that’s why we need the Feds to uphold the values that made us great.”
then you had better start planning to amend the Constitution, unless you really don’t care about the Constitution, which would means that you really don’t care about the nation.
