V COS would also be a good way to revoke the 17th amendment.
I recognize this issue is causing a debate of For and Against Nationally. I once was For a Convention of States BUT the more research I did convinced me to be Against. With Voter Fraud so rampant a Convention of States is Too Risky.
Please understand …. a Convention of States is Too Risky. I believe the Founders of our Nation gave the People enormous power over those seeking to govern the People. My belief has become, after personal research, the risk For the People could through a Convention of States could create a government with more power to further enslave the People more than is the current state. I’m currently slave enough.
Br’er Rabbit comes to mind.
“Don’t toss us into that COS briar patch. Oh, no—we would really hate that!”

More risk than we face today ?
I disagree.
And I believe the fear porn narrative of
” it's too risky”
is on the same level of the
” you are a conspiracy theorist”
narrative.
Dems and rinos favorite go to assertions.
You say you are “ slave enough”
And yet fear worse tyranny ?
How much worse can tyranny be for a “slave “ ?
No, we have a bureaucratic and oligarch tyranny NOW.
What ? We should vote our way out of it ?
Rely on the federal Congress to legislate the tyranny away ?
No, they act too slow to save our nation.
Article V COD could right ALL the wrongs in 1 fell swoop.
Our only hope is for the states to regress the fed back into its proper constitutional role .
Repeal the 16th and 17th amendments.
Revoke D.C. sovereignty and independence, and return it to state property and jurisdiction.
The founders KNEW. tyranny would eventually creep in due to man's sinful nature.
They knew they had to provide an “ in case of federal decent into tyranny emergency “ lever for states to reign in federal over reach.
There is no other reason for article V COD to have been added to the founding documents or to exist.
The only thing “ at risk” is to the federal bureaucratic tyranny, demcommies, rino’s, crony criminal corporatists, oligarchs and apostate tyranny .
.
Absolutely. Your above comment confirms and solidifies my belief. Too Risky. If the People cannot have our representatives of our government govern “For the People” I can only believe due to man’s sinful nature, a COS would be taken over by sinful men and women seeking to destroy the Peoples’ Constitution.
You said you were a slave, but it's too risky ?
Riskier than being a slave ?
You're argument holds no water
Just cuz men are sinners doesn't mean there aren't lots who have repented and are willing to do what's right
It took years for individual reprobates to corrupt our gov
COS could change that in one fell swoop
Your way, rolling over and peeing on yourself crying
It's too risky
It's too risky
It's too risky
Stinks of rank cowardice
My comment solidifies your belief ?
Oh bullshit.
You are just grasping for any argument to maintain your “ it's TOO risky” narrative
I see it took you over 24 hours to think up a rebuttal
A lame on at that.
The more your crowd kicks and screams and crys
The more I see it as pure fear it might happen and put your idea of utopia back in the trash can with all the other tyrants this country has thrown off.
,
destroy the Peoples’ Constitution.

.the constitution is ALREADY destroyed
A COS could restore it in one fell swoop.
