Constitutional law experts say the movement is mostly symbolic because federal laws supersede those of the states


(Uncited) Constitutional Law experts come to the sophisticated conclusion that Federal laws supersede those of the states. Period. Really? And what is symbolic about an actual, compelled law suit in a real, actual court of law anyway?
