If we begin to pick and chose what parts of the Constitution we will respect and what we can dismiss following, everyone would do the same and then we have no Constitution. If we want to change a part, I agree with LJ we need to do it legally.
Just a last thought (from me anyway) about picking and choosing which bits of the Constitution to follow. Presented in no particular order.
1. Since the Constitution is the law of the land, taking bits that people don’t like and not following, will result in destroying the entire Constitution. This is what Demsheviks want; 0bola proposed and others have, to get rid of it and make a new Constitution.
2. If the Constitution is fair game to ignore, then why would anyone feel they have to follow state, county or municiple laws? Or any federal laws? Rejecting the Constituion (parts that are not liked) means any set of laws can similarly be ignored.
3. The above would create, in not a long time, total anarchy and lawlessness, and it is not pretty.
4. The anarchy would lead to robber barons locally, or a dictator.
Thus, adhering to the Constitution is vital to the peace and security of the US, and if there are any parts that sufficient number of citizens do not want, there are ways to try to change the Constitution.
