I like how every conservative is so pro state rights except when they don't like the state's laws.

As a true conservative who actually wants a small federal government I hope Supreme Court rules in favor of letting states make their own laws.

That's a dumb statement. States rights have no bearing on constitutional protections. Nothing can strip those rights away from us.

That would be great, except that the concept of incorporation was settled LONG ago states can't have laws that violate the COTUS. I don't believe the founding fathers meant for the COTUS to apply to state governments, but that is what we have now, and legal precedent would lead to ruling AGAINST the MO law here.
