Through the looking glass: liberals resort to states’ rights; conservatives embrace judicial fiat

[bigrebnc1775]

And that division will only increase – Americans will witness the balkanization of their rights and liberties – indeed, liberties no longer protected.

Whether one is afforded his rights and liberties will be dependent upon his state of residence; one’s rights and liberties will be dependent upon the capricious whims of partisan lawmakers, not the Constitution and its case law.

You got your states rights with abortion. Stop whining.

Good. Maybe more and more people will embrace my idea of dividing the country into two countries. I can't imagine how great it would be never having to deal with liberal antics ever again,

Democrats had decades to make Roe federal law.

They didn't. On purpose.

They didn't so the Useful Idiots like you would get your ragegasm on when told to do so, and there you are.

'A week after the Supreme Court issued monumental rulings loosening restrictions on carrying guns and overturning the constitutional right to abortion, New York began to enact sweeping measures designed to blunt the decisions’ effects. In an extraordinary session convened by Gov. Kathy Hochul that began Thursday and carried late into Friday evening, the State Legislature adopted a new law placing significant restrictions on the carrying of handguns and initiated the process of passing a constitutional amendment enshrining the right to abortion in the state of New York.

“We’re not going backwards,” Gov. Kathy Hochul, a Democrat, said at a news conference in Albany on Friday. “They may think they can change our lives with the stroke of a pen, but we have pens, too.” She made remarks on the coming July 4 holiday, asking New Yorkers to remember what was being commemorated: “the founding of a great country that cherished the rights of individuals, freedoms and liberty for all.” “I am standing here to protect freedom and liberty here in the state of New York,” she added.

The state’s new gun law bars the carrying of handguns in many public settings such as subways and buses, parks, hospitals, stadiums and day cares. Guns will be off-limits on private property unless the property owner indicated that he or she expressly allowed them. At the last minute, lawmakers added Times Square to the list of restricted sites.'
