>> "States Rights" makes conservatives think of the civil war, when the southern states lost their "right" to own negro slaves. Thus, a CLEAR "dog whistle".

I can't say what's in the mind of conservatives, and I'm pretty sure you cannot, either.

Are you sure "states rights" isn't a dog whistle for something else? It seems to me the concept predates significantly the slavery issue.
