And Taz and his friends are resting only on opinion. OK. That's their right. But not one of them brought any evidence to the floor that is worthwhile considering. The one dork's opinion about the 10th does not matter in the slightest; his thinking is of no import. The only importance is that of SCOTUS.

Junior you haven't brought anything to the discussion. So the only opion that is important is that of SCOTUS. What if SCOTUS ruled that everybody had to convert to Christianity would you still think SCOTUS had the only opinion?

SCOTUS ruling trump your opinions, sonny. Don't be stupid with "what if". What if you could reason; now that would be interesting.

Damn usually a smart child will finally have an understanding when you have repeated something 2 or 3 times. Did your parants drop you on your head when you were a baby?

Has the tenth Amendment been repealed? Since it hasn't then any SCOTUS opinion or ruling against the Tenth would be considered un-Constitutional
 
Maybe your memory is as faulty as your logic?

I posted the text of the 10th already. I also posted alongside it the facts of the arguments over the interpretations of the text.



Nonetheless, the constitutional revolution was transitory. In 1883, the Supreme Court, having already limited the Fourteenth Amendment's protections of the rights of freedmen, declared the Civil Rights Act of 1875 unconstitutional on the ground that it was “repugnant to the Tenth Amendment” (Civil Rights Cases, p. 15). During the next generation, the Court struck down a number of state exercises of the police power—in keeping with the Tenth Amendment's “prohibited by it to the states” clause—yet it never once allowed Congress to exercise a police power itself.
You used the link that I used earlier. Now why would I provbide something that would contrdict what I have proven?
I guess you didn't read the whole source before youy posted thinking it was supporting your opinion.
repugnant to the Tenth Amendment
Now what does repugnant mean?

1 : incompatible, inconsistent
2 archaic : hostile
3 : exciting distaste or aversion <repugnant language> <a morally repugnant practice>

The debate still drags on until the tenth is repealed it still the collar around the neck of the federal government. We can either pull in the government or let it run a little further out.

still stuck on stupid?

I posted the text of the 10th. Not from any link you had.


I also posted info from...

http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1O184-TenthAmendment.html

This is the link I posted way before you posted what ever it was you posted. Now why would I post something that contridics what I am saying unless there was something else in it you haven't read? Stupid is your greatest trait.


and maybe even from... The Constitution: A Question of Interpretation – Tenth Amendment Center

now pay attention. here is what may separate you from the Fitzs of the world.

ready?

The second link? It has a conclusion I disagree with., but I posted it because even though I differ with that one scholar, but in a roundabout way he does admit it is a matter of opinion and interpretation. How? He frames the debate as one of 'Defenders of the Constitution" with Opponents of the Constitution"

Now he may be a constitutional scholar, and I a blowhard (like you) on the internet(s), but not being an average blowhard (like Fitz), I am aware that the framers of the Constitution themselves would and did, disagree with his analysis and framing of the debate.

yeah, only a few of you had the balls to be honest and call Obama a niggar. The rest of you threw the Tea Party leader out for saying what was on other's minds.

:wtf: You are such a racist piece of delusional shit.

Racist? :lol: Only in as much as I was born in America. I have no problems with any race. I am biased in favor whites, because I am white. But I'm not blind or stupid. I know a racist when they open their mouths.

note: I also do not believe in race except as a human construct. I use the term 'race' for the purposes of discussion and common understandings of the term

YES this is a racist comment stupid

You base your worth on a person because of the color of their skin, because you are white you hold more regard for whites. is what you are saying to me. A persons worth is not bases on the color of his skin but how he try's to exist what he does and how he acts
 
What's up thang? you said that the tenth hasn't been repealed if that is the case then you have no arguement. The tenth is the amendment that the people have the right to give the power to a central government or they have the power to take the power away from that central government. We give the Federal power and with the authority from the tenth we can take it away.

10th:

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
---

The amendment itself is separate from the issue of interpretation. Your arguments are based upon an idea called Originalism that has gained ground in the last few decades or so (see page 7: Powered by Google Docs harvard-jlpp.com

You make up arguments you then go on to win, arguing against yourself, and then you posit opinion as accepted fact?

:clap2:

at one time you may have been a worthy opponent: when I was still in Junior High School.

Hey little red riding hood from NC, we argue on pages 10 and 11, then w e get here on page 13.

here's another link I used: American President: Calvin Coolidge: A Life in Brief

I think now more than ever, that you are unclear on the concept.

You still don't get it junior. Has the Tenth Amendment been repealed?
 
Awwww Whassamatta Dante? DOn't like being exposed for the racist unethical shit you are? Gotta neg rep because you can't hack the truth of your public image? I keep telling you, neg rep me for disagreeing and you will get more of the same.

Fitz, stop whining about reps and stop making rep shit public. It's getting to be embarrassing just knowing you.

Fits is whiner and loser. He embarrasses his own side here, but, hey, that's OK, it's America and even folks who threaten America values like Fits and Taz and others can post. And the rest of us can continue to make fun of them.

Fits, quit whining, son. It's not seemly.

Junior, In your opinion what are American values?
 
SCOTUS has determined the 10th Amendment in our society. You all are mere dilettantes without the training to properly evaluate, so, too bad, so sad, get mad. bigrebnc1775, dude, and their playmates aptly demonstrate their ineptness. They need to move along.

Why did you edit this out: "You used the link that I used earlier. Now why would I provbide something that would contrdict what I have proven? I guess you didn't read the whole sourse before youy posted thinking it was supporting your opinion."

You don't get it. We are all racist as we have all been raised in a racist society. Whether we act out on our racism or try and push it down is the measure of the man/woman.

We all have biases we are either unaware of or are not in control of. black people enter a room full of whites and look around at or for other faces of color, just as whites look around for the familiar when entering a room full of darker people. Biases.

You think you know things? that is part of your biases. Want proof of the type of thing I am talking about? Proof that has no inbuilt biases as far as we can tell?

OMG Do you know what racism and being a racist is?, and then you start showing the difference between a man and a woman.
1. Not everybody is a racist
Everybody is prejudice which isn't always being a racist.

2. You are being a sexist with the baseball images.

The Supreme Court rarely declares laws unconstitutional for violating the Tenth Amendment. In the modern era, the Court has only done so where the federal government compels the states to enforce federal statutes.
In 1992, in New York v. United States, 505 U.S. 144 (1992), for only the second time in 55 years, the Supreme Court invalidated a portion of a federal law for violating the Tenth Amendment. The case challenged a portion of the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985. The act provided three incentives for states to comply with statutory obligations to provide for the disposal of low-level radioactive waste. The first two incentives were monetary. The third, which was challenged in the case, obliged states to take title to any waste within their borders that was not disposed of prior to January 1, 1996, and made each state liable for all damages directly related to the waste. The Court, in a 6–3 decision, ruled that the imposition of that obligation on the states violated the Tenth Amendment. Justice Sandra Day O’Connor wrote that the federal government can encourage the states to adopt certain regulations through the spending power (i.e., by attaching conditions to the receipt of federal funds, see South Dakota v. Dole), or through the commerce power (by directly pre-empting state law). However, Congress cannot directly compel states to enforce federal regulations.

In 1997, the Court again ruled that the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act violated the Tenth Amendment (Printz v. United States, 521 U.S. 898 (1997)). The act required state and local law enforcement officials to conduct background checks on persons attempting to purchase handguns. Justice Antonin Scalia, writing for the majority, applied New York v. United States to show that the law violated the Tenth Amendment. Since the act “forced participation of the State’s executive in the actual administration of a federal program,” it was unconstitutional.

Great cut and paste there Junior but tell me in your own words what is the purpose of the Tenth Amendment if it is still in full force?
Or lets do it this way
1. the states have the authority of the federal government because of the Tenth Amendment
2. the states do not have any authority over the federal government and the tenth Amendment is not in full force as you first said.

Simply put...

Per the Supremacy Clause the federal Government has priority over the states in executing broad powers in running the business of the United States. Those powers not executed by the Federal Government are delegated to the States.

Now you can whine all you want and say "Thats not what Glenn Beck says' but that is the interpretation of 150 years of court decisions. If you don't like it....do what you can to get it changed. But whining "I think the 10th Amendment means this.." will not get you anywhere

So the tenth contridics the Supremacy Clause which came first the Supremacy Clause or the tenth Amendment? Oh and I have never said "I think the 10th Amendment means this.." The tenth Amendment means exactly what it says. Just like the second amendment means what it says.
