CDZ Equality and the Constitution

[Sundance508]

This has been gone over at one point or another just about on every political board....but still yet...a lot of confusion exists regarding Equality and the Constituion as well as Equality itself...there is even a group calling themselves 'equalists' who really believe everyone is equal and in every way....as ridiculous as that is....no doubt picked that up in the classrooms of our public schools.

Anyhow to get back to Equality and the Constitution...............

Equality and the Constitution

• "All men are created equal" is in the Declaration of Independence, not the Constitution
• The word "equality" does not appear anywhere in the Constitution
• 14th Amendment guarantees "equal protection of the laws"

The principle of equality is so central to American ideology that we often forget that the word does not appear in the Constitution. We often forget that Jefferson's iconic phrase "all men are created equal" is in the Declaration of Independence—a document that has no real legal power. It was written to declare and explain our separation from Great Britain, and while it may offer a set of ideals that we as a nation are committed to, it does not carry the sort of legal weight held by legislative statutes or judicial precedents.

The closest thing to the word or concept of "equality" in the Constitution is found in the Fourteenth Amendment. Added to the Constitution in 1868, this amendment contains a clause stating that "no state shall . . . deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

In other words, the closest the Constitution comes to guaranteeing or advocating equality is the Fourteenth Amendment's declaration that the states must provide all people equal treatment under the law.

So how, have so many gotten it wrong?....well most of the blame I think must be placed on the public schools.....in their political correct zealotry they have intentionally or un-intentionally given the idea (most especially to young Negroes) that all folks are equal...as in intelligence wise, as in ability as in every way actually.

Thus it is not difficult to see why so many young negroes hate white folks....mistakenly believing that the only thing that seperates them from whites is a nebulous concept called White Privilege....except for that they really believe their achievements would rank right up there with all other races.

Freedom and equality are mutually exclusive terms.

Our federal Constitution is both gender and race neutral, from Intelligent Design and Inception.

Nonsense..........to begin with 41 signers of the Constitution owned slaves......do you think they would have signed a document that would have stripped them of their slaves if your interpretation of it was correct? Of course not. Negroes were not even considered fully human by the framers of the Constitution...they were considered 'property' and as such they were not even taken into consideration. Lest we forget....a lot of white folk were slaves also....camouflaged by the term 'indentured servants' ...in reality slaves and were not taken care of nearly as well as were the black slaves.

All white folk were considered to be equal before the law in a theoretical manner...but everyone then and now knows that was never the case and is still not the case as in rich people had and have superior access to justice because of their ability to hire the best lawyers....poor whites for the most part could not even afford lawyers.

Lets skip a few pages here.

Are you of the belief the Constitution as currently ammended has second class citizens?

The compromises of the 18th century will be forever a black eye on the U.S. and our "lore".

So pony up, do you believe there are second class citizens?

Do you believe there are second class humans?

I frequently make an odd point about the 2md Ammendment. Are you just making a point about poor wording in ammendments?

Specifically....which amendment are you referring to?

Specifically...which compromise are you referring to?

There are many classes of citizens. There is no such thing as equality. The concept of all being equal before the law is constitutional but in reality a myth.

Humans are basically degenerates and worthy of nothing more than death...some more so than others.

Slavery should have ended automatically after 1808 since anyone born in a US State is automatically a citizen by birth.

Ok then, let me check and see if I understand your questions.

You believe the Constitution as it sits supports the idea of multiple classes of citizens at birth?

As in some are more entitled to life, liberty and whatever than others?

I LOVE the death penalty so I obviously agree humans can be degenerates.

If you think blacks or hispanics, women or whoever are are less of a citizen than white land owners just say so. It will avoid a ton of dancing around the issue like girls trying to find an excuse to do what they want to do.

The Constitution was written by white men for white men....Africans were not considered in the Constitution at all as they were nothing more than 'property'....There were different classes of white people and that was not dealt with either i.e. indentured servants, tradesmen, aristocrats, shop keepers, etc. at the time the Constitution was written the Aristocracy...wealthy white land owners ruled and they took care of their own. Again....under the constitution the only guarantee of equality was equality before the law which did not apply to the colored folk, and even for poor whites it was just at best a goal or a principle which in real life was not of much value...since poor white folk could not even afford to retain a lawyer thus the constitutional gurantee of equality before the law even for white folk was not something that worked for most white folk .......even today.

In a nutshell...it is not a question of degrees of citizenship...it is a question of power...who has it and what they do with it. The constitution is a highly over-rated piece of paper and has little meaning unless it is enforced and many presidents have violated it as obama well demonstrated.
