And they rode in carriages. Times change.

But the interpretation of the Constitution isn't supposed to.

You must be careful with this line of logic. You must admit that the gun-grabbers use the same argument, right?

Funny, that's the same argument the gungrabbers use when attacking the 2nd Amendment: The citizen militia is outdated, they were talking about flintlocks, nobody 'needs' semi-automatic firearms, times change.

Say what you like about pot but don't take the 'times change' argument as that's the very heart of the liberal interpretation of the Constitution.
