IOW, you can't justify your statement putting acts of Congress above the Constitution:

"However, the way the laws are written I do believe the decision was within the constitution."

That's an expression of contempt for the Constitution.

—That’s an expression of contempt for the Constitution.—

What is? All I said is “However, the way the laws are written I do believe the decision was within the constitution.”

You see, some laws are constitutional, and some aren’t. That was my point. It is constitutional to make some things illegal. Crack cocaine, for example. When I say a decision is within the constitution, what I mean is that I agree with it and believe it from a constitutional perspective.
