State's rights.

Take it up with your state government.

I suggest reminding them where rights come from

Well, it depends on if liquer licenses are in the LA State constitution. Powers not explicitly given to the feds go to the states, and if the state constitutions don't explicitly give those powers to the state they are reserved by the people.

Rights come from God, not constititions. If the government doesn't protect rights, alter or abolish accordingly

Yes. All rights are god-given and inherent to the people. My post is not about rights. It's about how our specific government, at least according to the constitution, attains their powers. The people give certain powers to the Federal Government via the constitution. The powers are limited to what is explicitly given by the constitution. The only "living document" arguments which are valid are formal amendments to the constitution, thus most of what the federal government does is invalid. Furthermore, anything the state governments do is only valid if the state constitution specifically allows that use of power.
