Slavery ran counter to its State Constitution.

And this is how Liberals do it. When Massachusetts drafted it's 1776 constitution, they decided to incorporate the stirring sentiment of Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence.

The Activist court decreed that putting those words into the Massachusetts constitution abolished slavery, even though there was absolutely no legislative intent to do so. They made up that law out of thin air, and then forced everyone to live under their newly made up law.

And that's how Liberals have been doing it ever since.

You sure are good at twisting things.
Can you twist the stem of a cherry into a knot using your tongue?
