A Win For Originalism…And America

8. The view of Liberal judges is that they can ‘interpret’ the Constitution to mean whatsoever they choose…..as in the 1973 abortion decision.

One of the worst of these fake Justices is Justice Wm. Brennan, jr…1985 Georgetown speech supported the “transformative purpose” of the Constitution, in which he argued for an “aspiration to social justice, brotherhood, and human dignity…”

Brennan falls back on the idea that moderns should not be bound by “a world that is dead and gone.” Of course, there are lots of laws on the books today by folks dead and gone: Social Security laws, or the Civil Rights Act of 1964, or the Sixteenth Amendment imposing an income tax, and all nine justices who participated in Roe v. Wade are now dead. Would Brennan suggest ignoring any of these….or does he simply wish to allow judges to pick and choose which laws written by dead people we are to be bound by? No, this ‘transformative’ view would simply allow justices to erase parts of the Constitution. (Calabrisi)



And that is the aim of Liberal/Democrat judges.
The left always argues against being bound by the dead and gone but completely ignore that they have the right to try to change the Constitution. They never want to do it that way, though. They prefer to destroy the Constitution.
 
You're post are lying BS by RWNJ's that think their idea's are "originalist".

Gaslighting only works are morons.
If you're going to challenge, do it by showing where in the Constitution your ideas are supported. Back that up with documents from the Founders or the founding period to support original intent and meaning to support your interpretation.
 
You r****s keep ignoring "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State".


We already found you to be an imbecile.....but I can't help rubbing it in: militia:


Militia.


. “…well regulated militia…” Consider the sentence “Being a fisherman, Joe needs a boat.” Does this mean that Joe should only buy a boat if he fishes for a living? The reference to a militia is a reason why the people “When the words of the enacting clause are clear and positive, recourse must not be had to the preamble.” James Kent, Commentaries on American Law, 1858 (Legal scholar and law professor at Columbia College)

In the Constitution, Congress is given the power “to promote the Progress of Science and the useful Arts” by enacting copyright and patent laws (Article 1, Section 8). Would you argue that every copyright work or patented invention must promote scientific progress and useful arts?



1792 Militia Act of 1792, setting forth standards for the May 2 Act, (1792 Militia Act of 1792 was passed by the Second Congress, allowing the president to call out members of the states militias.) including a] each and every free able-bodied white male citizen of age 18 and under age 45… b] provide himself with a good musket,…bayonet and belt,… not less than twenty four cartridges.; c] exempting all elected officials and employees of the government.



George Mason, Father of the Bill of Rights: "I ask, Who are the militia? They consist now of the whole people, except a few public officers." (Jonathan Elliot, The Debates of the Several State Conventions on the Adoption of the Federal Constitution, [NY: Burt Franklin,1888] p.425-6)



The Constitution gave Congress the power to raise and support a national army, and to organize “the Militia.” This is because an army didn’t naturally exist, while “the Militia” only had to be organized: it always existed. (See enumerated powers in Article 1,Section 8.)



The Supreme Court, in US v. Miller, (1939) “…militia system…implied the general obligation of all adult male inhabitants to possess arms, and, with certain exceptions, to cooperate in the work of defence.” It concluded that the militia was primarily civilians.



Today, federal law defines “the militia of the United States” to include all able-bodied males from 17 to 45 and members of the National Guard up to age 64, but excluding those who have no intention of becoming citizens, and active military personnel. (US Code Title 10, sect. 311-313)



[10 U.S. Code § 311 - Exchange of defense personnel between United States and friendly foreign countries: authority]

have a right to arms, but it is not the only reason.



b. “…well-regulated…” Regulated does not refer to government regulations. Contemporary meaning from definitions in the Oxford English Dictionary. "Regulated" has an Obsolete definition (b) "Of troops: Properly disciplined" and then "discipline" has a definition (3b) applying to the military, "Training in the practice of arms and military evolutions; drill. Formerly, more widely: Training or skill in military affairs generally; military skill and experience; the art of war." (The pesky meaning of "Well Regulated" - Democratic Underground)





How many times do perfect strangers walk up, point at you, and laugh???????????
I don't often see you speak out on the 2A threads. Of course your handling of it is stellar. Thank you.

".... there were three SCOTUS decisions last week — one on First Amendment religious freedom, one on the affirmation of Second Amendment freedom, and one on restoring protection for the must vulnerable and precious among us, babies before birth.

For those decisions, we owe a debt of gratitude to Sen. Mitch McConnell and former President Donald Trump, who paved the path to these decisions."

Let's get right to the heart of the Democrat propaganda......and put a stake through it:


What if you have no gun laws, no gun restrictions, no gun free zones????????

If you believe the 'wild, wild West,' everyone will shoot everyone else, lies......



.....explain this:

After Mississippi, Vermont has the least restrictive gun laws in the nation.

" It’s the only state where people as young as 16 can purchase certain types of guns, and there are no laws that prevent people from bringing guns into places of worship, bars or restaurants where alcohol is served, or polling places. Unlike most other states in the Northeast, there’s also no law regulating firearm sales at gun shows."

9 States With the Loosest Gun Laws

Though occasional efforts to change federal gun laws get a lot of attention, most of America’s gun-related legislation happens on a state-by-state basis.

www.cheatsheet.com
"Right to keep and bear arms shall never be questioned in Vermont, according to Article 1, Section 16. No state permit is required to buy and possess a shotgun, rifle or handgun. However, if you wish to own machine gun, it is lawful but has to be legally registered. It is important to note that in Vermont, it is illegal to hunt (or possess while hunting) with an automatic firearm. Also, it is legal to carry firearm openly if you are at least 21 years old or between 18 and 21 on active duty in the Armed Forces or National Guard or if you are an honorably discharged veteran. While it is illegal to hunt with an automatic firearm, those who committed violent crimes, mentally ill as well as drug and alcohol abusers can legally buy firearms. Still, Vermont has the lowest violent crime rate in USA."

They've found an eminently sucessful way: they ignore the Constitution.


It began with Stalin's BFF, Franklin Roosevelt.


. In July 5, 1935, in a letter to Representative Samuel B. Hill of Washington, the President manifested his contempt for the Constitution. Hill was chairman of the subcommittee studying the Guffey-Vinson bill to regulate the coal industry: the purpose of the legislation was to re-establish, for the coal industry, the NRA code system which the Supreme Court had unanimously declared unconstitutional. Roosevelt wrote: "I hope your committee will not permit doubts as to constitutionality, however reasonable, to block the legislation."



This was the same Roosevelt who had sworn an oath on his 300 year old family Bible, to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
Chesly Manly, "The Twenty Year Revolution," p. 65.
 
Maybe things will turn out right in Vermont and Rhode Island. It seems that their abortion rights bills will have a "shall not be infringed" clause.

Baby's may be safer than we think.

Gun Control Is as Old as the Old West​

Contrary to the popular imagination, bearing arms on the frontier was a heavily regulated business

Matt Jancer

The “Old West” conjures up all sorts of imagery, but broadly, the term is used to evoke life among the crusty prospectors, threadbare gold panners, madams of brothels, and six-shooter-packing cowboys in small frontier towns – such as Tombstone, Deadwood, Dodge City, or Abilene, to name a few. One other thing these cities had in common: strict gun control laws.

The 14th Amendment made that illegal on the States. And those weren't federal restrictions.

That's agreed on the originality. Jesus himself argued against seeing the image of prayer (Matthew 6:5). POSSCOTUS is currently in the pocket of the Nazi Dems.

I just did.
Just like the looney tune I was responding to, you also CHOOSE to ignore.

Plain and simple.

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

You and her ignore the first part, cling to the second part.

See if this helps:


As there is no end to the sort of mayhem under Democrat gun laws, and clearly gun restrictions are based on
the hatred of normal, law-abiding citizens.....
...perhaps we should simply do the opposite or anything Democrats order.


It was tried here......and seems to work.


"Southern U.S. town proud of its mandatory gun law


KENNESAW, Georgia (Reuters) - The Virginia Tech killings have set off calls for tighter U.S. gun laws but anyone wanting to know why those demands likely will make little headway should visit Kennesaw, a town where owning a gun is both popular and mandatory.
... it passed a gun ordinance in 1982 that required all heads of a household to own a firearm and ammunition.


The Kennesaw law has endured as the town’s population has swelled to about 30,000 from 5,000 in 1982.

“When the law was passed in 1982 there was a substantial drop in crime ... and we have maintained a really low crime rate since then,” said police Lt. Craig Graydon. “We are sure it is one of the lowest (crime) towns in the metro area.

Residents say they are comfortable with the image the gun law projects on the city as a bastion of gun freedom."
