He’s absolutely Correct. Therefore, when I become Dictator and President for life, and I burn him at the stake for a spelling error, and he starts yelling about his so-called “rights” from the smoke, I can remind him of this article, and smile...
....and economically thriving, eh Matt?
The “author” is an idiot of the lowest order. He has no understanding of history and his obvious contempt of the Founding Fathers is abysmal.
My suggestion to the “author” of that tripe would be that he read, if he has the ability, the Federalist Papers.
Then he might, just might have a clue. But I won’t hold my breath. The man is delusional.
There is no arguing with a worldviiew that has such a different premise. He rejects the initial inalienable rights doctrine of individuals, and asserts there are no inherent rights, ONLY “rights” decided (conveniently) and defined by folks like him.
It goes something like this: “Oh, that useless piece of parchment, written by dead white guys. You know how they were. Don’t bother reading a document designed to be read and understood by 18th century backwoods farmers, you are completely too stupid today, to comprehend such literature, and besides, the Supreme Court ruled, and the constitution is Unconstitutional and they are the Final Authority on that, unless they rule that it isn’t, then of course they are wrong, because we’re the Experts.
Get out of the way.
“The Second Amendment is there to keep His Majesty from taking your stuff.”
You left out something very important Matt.
“The second amendment is there to keep the federal government we are forming in 1787 from enslaving the people of the thirteen sovereign states, by the power of usurpation, but in the meantime, only the Continental army and what weapons we have are going to be able to keep the king from taking our stuff.
Matt, what can I say. Stupidity, is a fatal disease. You have it, and nothing I say will cure you, so sorry. I do have some compassion, but not for you, mostly for the country you are doing your damnedest to destroy with your democrat ideas and talking points.
While the rest of the world “swirls around the toilet bowel”, is more like it...
This article is a glaring example of why “interpreting” the Constitution in essence nullifies it.
While the world moves on... collapsing, in flames, over the edge of the cliff.
No thanks.
You cannnot reason with a far-Lefty who has no concept of history or context. The Fairy Tale obsession with European Socialism as a model to emulate here is flawed in concept and in practice.
He is the problem, and one day, the enemy.
This is what comes when mediocre minds possess such high self esteem .
This guy is either a complete idiot or is simply a propagandist trying to prey on idiots in our society.
He says:
“Take for instance, abortion.
The argument for it is that society does not benefit from millions of unwanted children who disproportionately become burdens on society.”
Well if there are no inalienable rights and the Constitution needs to be thrown out in order to get things done and not have gridlock then why stop at children yet born?
We need to get things done, right? So forget about just legal abortions, lets just get rid of all the human waste that is burdening our society.
Hopefully if we get a new form of government we can start with getting rid of this dictator loving imbecile. Then he can see how well his new streamlined system of government will work.
Sorry for such a negative sounding post but it is so disheartening to read such extreme ignorance being promoted today by the left.
He is simply arguing for fascist dictatorship pure and simple.
