Also the 1st through 10th CAN NOT BE REPEALED.
It's sad how many don't know this. This is why the first 10 are called the bill of rights.
The Constitution is literally a list of what the government is allowed to do. Nothing more. If it isn’t listed, it’s prohibited.
The federal government is prohibited and the decisions within said context are the states' choice.
Yeah, it's bill of rights, but it's not your rights, it's the governments rights. Specifically, the ones it doesn't have.
But in this day and age people think "shall not be infringed" means may issue is a-okay, so these seem like subtleties in perspective. Sad.
The only rights you have are the ones you give yourself.
Please allow me to elaborate on that statement.
The only rights you have are the ones you enforce yourself.
Until you declare your rights, you have none.
A right is an idea backed by threats of tangible violence.
Americans have little rights because they have little threat behind their ideas.
The constitution promises nothing. Just symbols upon paper
We have a pretty good bill of them.
Like I said, until you claim those rights are yours. You have none.
You can claim all you want, the one with the most goons makes the rights.
This is true.
The constitution exists as a warning towards the government.
Anyone who thinks the US Government exists to protect or give citizens anything is a fucking retard who deserves deportation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they *are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights*, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed
It is it's natural manure
99% of the government operates outside of it's charter through the interstate commerce clause.
The non-existent (((commerce clause))) was amended to irrelevancy by the 9th and 10th Amendments anyways, so...
Human rights are an agreement between people. If some of those people stop respecting them, they cease to exist, in any manifest way. It's the same with the US Constitution -- it only has power for so long as the people of the United States give it power. Sure, rights are from God, but to realize those rights on earth is the job of men. It's the task of every generation to uphold those rights, and to remind the children of what they are and why they exist. One failed generation and the chain is broken.
Give by our creator not the gubmint.
The constitution is there to let you know that those are the rights the government is supposed to uphold in the event we cannot on our own.
No. No. No. No. The constitution is a limit on the federal government.
How's that been working out?
So in the last 50 years of its 250 year history some activist judges have decided to rule in ways that are against the constitution. How does this invalidate the intent of the Constitution?
Go spam somewhere else faggot. That's literally what this thread calls out. Then you gloat about it? Wonder who would do that?
