I understand the difference. And I can also explain these people’s beliefs. But you are defending them.

I know that there were Constitutional scholars who defended opposition to the CRA on Federalism grounds. There were scholars who defended Plessy and opposed Brown on the same grounds. The same is true for Dredd Scott, and in all of these cases the scholars were wrong. And I feel comfortable saying in the majority of cases, the Constitutional arguments were a weak veneer coating racism. I’m sorry you cannot see that and want so much to explain these beliefs on lofty Federalism principles.
