John Locke would like a word with you.



Did John Locke come back from the grave to include a relevant clause in the Constitution?


Did California?


If you want to explain how any of what you're talking about makes any sense, I'm all ears.

"The 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."

California is one of those states, so unless you can show where the coastal access law is prohibited elsewhere in the constitution (and that prohibition has been incorporated), California has done nothing unconstitutional.
