The 'states rights view' claims that States can prohibit ANYthing a majority sees fit to call 'evil'.

- Majority rule is an anti-constitutional form of government. We are guaranteed, in every state, a republican form of government by Art. IV Sec 4.

Do you honor the principles of our Constitution?

Police powers are used in the same way, as I explained in #236.

Yes. Do the courts? No.
