Could we correct the problem with a simple amendment requiring penalties for any legislator who participates in the passage of any law that is ruled to be unconstitutional? A large fine and disqualification from holding any government office either elected or appointed might make them stop and think. I am just throwing this out for consideration.

What we need to do is toss out the gutless, immoral, incompetent oath breaking Mother luvvers who pass laws that are Unconstitutional.

Lawyers are the lowest form of human life and our Congress and Washington are full of the thieving socksuckers.

Just wait until you need one. And someday you will.

I have needed them and they got paid——plenty

I wouldn’t trust one as far as I can throw them.

They attack each other in court, leave the court to go eat together have a beer and come back to the attack again.

You Know: Just like the Democrats and Republicans in Congress.

Liberals have lost the gun control issue as far as the public is concerned. It’s why dems don’t run on it. It’s why the doting court eunuchs in the MSM quit running stories about gun control. Dems told them to stop and they stopped.

FDR banned gold by Executive Order. It applied to everyone.

Not true.

An executive order is an instruction to federal employees only.

Posting it three times doesn’t make it correct.

Constitutionally, the executive can only order his own staff.

Perhaps you’re in love with judicial activism?

I posted fact-based history. In contrast, your ego isn’t letting you back down even in the face of overwhelming evidence that you were wrong.

Sad.

But, I get it. Now shut up and go away. Stop wasting my time. Now that I know what you are, you are dead to me.

So, by your limited cognition, everything that has happened in the past is correct?

The constitution does not allow executive orders directed to the people, whether your progressive mind likes it or not.

You don’t know what the Constitution says, and you certainly wouldn’t understand it.

Moreover, what I said was that FDR banned gold via Executive Order.

That happened.

You can pretend from down in your mama’s basement that gold was never banned, but such delusions are your crutch and have no bearing on actual world history facts.

It appears to be you that lacks the understanding.

FDR’s ‘ban’ was of limited scope: The dummies like you lost their gold; the cognoscenti kept their gold, knowing that they had nothing to worry about. I know lots of people that gained massively by hanging on to their property.

You can pretend that you understand, but your posts show that all you’re doing is playing parrot.

BTW, don’t be a Wikipedophile!

Oh, it’s you again. Yawn... Keep telling yourself whatever fantasies that you need to get you through your wasted life.
