Your comment is funny, but you should be aware this is a state issue, not a federal one.

Unless you are implying every state is down too :)

Interstate commerce, which this most certainly is, is a federal issue?

Every state has the right to pass laws that apply within it's borders.

The state approach is more fine-grained so a negative outcome is localized, and if the outcome is positive people in other states can enact similar laws if they want.

Couldn't the same logic be applied to every issue? How different is your argument from the one advanced by "states rights" segregationists in the 1960s and earlier?
