As the dissent noted, the hyenas in the Federal courts basically ruled in the Arizona immigration cases that state and local officials must defer to Federal policy, even when that policy is openly breaking the law.
I live in Colorado, where pot is being grown, sold, smoked and soon to be taxed while still illegal according to federal statute. Known foreign trespassers are being arrested and ICE will not take a single action. Voter fraud is committed in nearly every urban area with knowledge of the authorities with no effort to stop it. The IRS is willfully using their power to shape political speech. Arbitrary laws with arbitrary enforcement are the only precedent that can be pointed too. Meanwhile one thing stands unchanged, and that is the law of God, which has ultimate jurisdiction.
