O.k. I apologize for any confusion casued by my question. Some said "local" you said "state".

I stand by my question:

Quote:
Also if this issue did not belong at the federal level, why did they hear the case?
I think the Supreme Court saw that the question had Constitutional and national concerns and properly heard the case.

There appears to be two issues being discussed. One - the decision. the other- is this a federal or non-federal issue? I disagree with the decision and I believe the question needed a federal (Supreme Court) response. For clarification what is your position on the two issues?
