X Amendment

The tenth amendment says that states are able to make laws ONLY for that respective state and it can not go against the constitution. This basically means that states can make any laws that they choose for that state. For example they can approve or disapprove of gay marriage because it does not go against anything in the Constitution. But a state can not make a law stating that people are not aloud to bear arms. Thats a violation of the second amendment. Which is is part of the Constitution.

  1. Julian,

    You have the right idea on these blogs--but your format is off! You need to have read an article/watched a video for EACH entry and you must analyze the constitutional connections for each. Please re-read the instructions and look at the sample blog I provided again.
