Article V ping
(again!)
(Late)Thanks for the ping!
My biggest fear of a con con is that liberal states would send representatives to the convention that would be gunning for the 2nd amendment from the word Go.
It’s foreseeable that a runaway convention could start to go after things that they ought not, and worst case, we could see a schism between the states over adoption of a new constitution that looks nothing like the old one. That could break up the U.S.
In the back of my mind, though, is that a breakup of the U.S. may be inevitable. The biggest problem is the cultural differences between the urban dwellers and the rural conservatives could be unmendable.
They need us, even though they forget that every time they sit down at the dinner table. We’re viewed as those smelly people in flyover country clinging to their guns and religion.
