So, does Federal law trump State law? Sometimes it can.<br />n<br />n<blockquote>U.S. Constitution: Tenth Amendment <br />n<br />nThe powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.</blockquote><br />n<br />nThe question becomes if it does in <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.com/index.php?id=1&display=rednews/2005/08/30/build/business/56-horse-rule.inc">this situation</a>. This situation has a little more to do with Interstate commerce than a lot of situations do so I might have to give that Federal law might trump here. My opinion don't matter though, it's the judges opinion that counts.<br />n<br />nNow a personal note on this. I would not personally want to eat horse meat but if that's what someone else wants to do that's fine. It's a mammal just like a cow so if you protest eating horses you should also protest eating a cow. If you don't like horse slaughter don't pass laws against it. Spend your money buying horses and feeding them until they die.<br />n<br />n<b>A horse is dangerous at both ends and uncomfortable in the middle. Ian Fleming</b>
