as Mao said, “power comes out of the end of a gun barrel”............this is why the lefties want to take our guns!!!

..........there will come a time not too far down the road where enough armed people are going to hit the street and say “to hell with the Constitution, we are no longer going to tolerate 500 agencies regulating our lives and confiscating our wages”. That’s the point I think, not the Constitution. AND, it is way past time to amend it!

To be fair the state would have the same population as Wyoming

Not sure what you are counting in Wyoming, but there are more than a half million people there, not 53,000.

There is nothing wrong with the Constitution. We just need to go back to original intent and use it.

It established the few and narrow duties of the Federal Government, and left all else to the States and the People, with safeguards for the Rights of the people (which have been ignored ;ate;y).

Dust it off, shut down most of the FedGov, and get back to the basics we were supposed to have.

Looks like a current photo.
We have a house between Seiad Valley and Hamburg on Hwy 96 which may get torched by the Happy Camp fire. It’s been well cleared but the fire ran several miles the other day.

I’m sure 100% with you on shutting down the nearly all agencies of the federal government.

I do think the Constitution needs amending though but only when Conservatives are strong enough to control the agenda.

The two Amendments I’d really like to see would repeal the 16th and 17th Amendments.

Term limits and abolish the income tax in favor of something else.
