More to the point, do you think the legislators will ignore their rich and
powerful constituents, just like they did during the civil rights crises in
the 60s?

More fundamentally, I think it's short-sighted, and a serious mistake, to
base Constitutional principle solely on whether it yields your desired
result in a particular case.

So, you would advocate the repeal of all civil rights legislation that
has taken place at the Federal level in favor of the legislation being
put to the individual states? Talk about short-sighted!!

From your last paragraph, should we infer that the Bill of Rights
should also be eliminated, since it was designed to specifically
address a desired result?

As usual, non-sequiturs.

And you still haven't answered the question:

you think the State legislators will ignore their
constituents if, as you say, and vast majority favor your position?

Or the second question:

Could it be that you have doubts about whether that vast majority is such
a
vast majority?
