“So you believe the Framers purposely left a hand grenade in their fabulous work to purposely blow it up?”
No, they provided for change for people similar to them to make if needed. For them, nothing had essentially changed since Roman times. Technology was only slightly better, the food was basically the same, etc. Nothing had ever traveled by land faster than a horse and it wasn’t obvious that it ever would. People in general were literate and religious.
The founders failing, so to speak, was that they simply could not conceive that the American people would have a militant atheist government, would be teaching their kids to chop off their penises, would slaughter babies, even born alive babies, and sell that body parts. That they would live under the most invasive domestic spying regimen in human history, and would incur more debt than in all of human history combined, would fete homosexuality, etc. It was just too much for them to safeguard against. And hell, HAD they known, they would have known such a depraved people could not be constrained by words on paper anyway.
It wasn’t a hand grenade for men even remotely like themselves or men likely to be imaginable.
So then, what are the appropriate means today to restore free government?
