I'm sorry, I didn't realize that the North Carolina's legislature superceded Congress when it came to the state of the citizenship of the United States. The 1790 Act is pretty explicit, is it not?
And don't confuse common law to mean English common law at the time of the revolution as that is the law that was repudiated by the founders in the Declaration in 1776.
Well, the Supreme Court in Ark seemed to rely on English Common Law in their decision. Apparently without your permission.
Since we've determined that NC law trumps Federal Law, and that the Supreme Court was wrong in relying on English Common Law, well I guess I'll just bow out now...
DRONE BE GONE!!! YOU HAVE NO INDEPENDENT THOUGHT, YOU ONLY HAVE WHAT HAS BEEN INDOCTRINATED INTO YOU!
