Thank you for posting-I went to the Heritage site and printed out the info on “Property Clause” for further reading. This is really a complicated situation that requires careful thought and research.
There is the law to consider.
There is property rights to consider.
There is individual rights to consider.
There are elements of truth to both sides. There are problems with both sides.
As with many Freepers, I have been most disturbed by this situation and it’s implications for us as Americans.
One thing that struck me this morning. Our government no longer has the moral authority to do much of anything. Yes there are laws. Yes there is precedent and history. But as a government, it no longer holds the moral authority to carry out it’s duties or enforce anything.
As Mark Levin as noted-we are seeing clear signs of a declining country and a society disentigrating. This situation is just one more stark example of this.
I grieve for my country.
Michael Cannon in a House Judiciary committee hearing said:
“That is certainly something that no one wants to contemplate. If the people come to believe that the government is no longer constrained by the laws, then they will conclude that neither are they.”
Cannon said it is “very dangerous” for the president to “wantonly ignore the laws, to try to impose obligations upon people that the legislature did not approve.”
MUST WATCH!
