Georgetown law professor: Americans are ‘slaves’ to the U.S. Constitution
The College Fix ^ | July 6, 2022 | Dave Huber

A Georgetown University law professor says Americans are “slaves” to the U.S. Constitution as their adherence to that document — written by a “tiny group of white slave-owning men” — has turned the country into a “war zone.”

Rosa Brooks made the comparison yesterday on MSNBC’s Joy Reid show and highlighted the recent mass shooting in Highland Park, Illinois.

“[T]here are people all over the world who have lived during armed conflicts, and when does the mortar fall on your house, when does the soldier or the tank come down the street and just kill you,” Brooks said. “We are now living in that world, too, and we have brought it on ourselves.”

“That world” obviously would be due to the Second Amendment to the Constitution, and according to Brooks “we are essentially slaves to a document that was written more than 230 years ago.”

“And we cannot break out of the bondage that we have imposed on ourselves from feeling like we have to– everything by our Supreme Court is decided in reference to this ancient document which is just not serving us well,” Brooks continued. “It is causing enormous problems and enormous tragedies at this point.”

Did the law professor forget that the “ancient document” established a very clear procedure by which to “break out of [its] bondage”? It’s called Article V.

The Leftists hate the Constitution — they want us to be slaves to them.

Whew...gives you a headache trying to figure out how she could have possibly thought this made sense.

And she’s a “law professor” - someone who knows nothing about the law, nor respects it, but is apparently *teaching* people in class about the law.

I thought it was only the Confederate flag and Confederate constitution they wanted to disparage.

Taxation is slavery.

It’s not a matter of scale but of kind.

I certainly hope this woman does not teach constitutional law.
Doesn’t sound like she is qualified to teach kindergarten, let alone law classes.

We’re a “warzone” due to liberal policies forced upon us.

Better than being slaves to narcissistic authoritarian psychopaths.

If only the Dems wanted us to “look only to them (elites) for direction and answers.”

If only that was all that they wanted.

They want to control every single aspect of your life, no matter how small. Every single minuscule detail including what you are allowed to think and believe.

They want the family destroyed and all children raised by the State. They are the perfect Soviets and Bolsheviks from 1917 through 1930. Unfortunately, modern technology makes this more possible than ever before.

Wrong…Americans are slaves to the rest of the world, thanks to our corrupt government.

When Rosa Brooks volunteered for the Metropolitan Police Department reserve police force, she should have learned the importance of the rule of law as expressed by the U.S. Constitution. Obviously, something happened to her mind since. Any speculation?

This is her playing police officer:

This woman, if she is the same Rosa who is involved with the Transition Integrity Project, is a Soros tool.

Yeah, she's a globalist. I think she's a neocon, and part of the Soros NWO/Schwab WEF project.

I've been keeping track of her on Twitter and elsewhere since 2016.

She has one of the hallmarks of The Globalist Project in America: her hubby [with a different last name, of course] was one of Obama's Perfumed Princes in the military: Joseph Mouer, retired army LTC.

For an example of The Project, look at Michigan Secretary of Soros Jocelyn "Dirty Josey" Benson and her hubs Ryan Friedrichs, former sergeant in the 173rd Airborne Brigade.

I find it interesting that so many of these Soros/Schwab people are dabbling in the US military...

There are plenty of countries he can relocate to. How about Cuba? Or China? Or Russia? North Korea is also a wonderful place, his ‘model society’.
