"Show me the passage in the Constitution that defines murder."


Pointless demand.. How can I show you something that doesn't exist?

However, state laws on murder must conform to the basic protections of our Constitution & BOR's, under the supremacy clause of Art VI:

- The Constitution -- shall be the supreme Law of the Land, and ---- every state shall be bound thereby, --

Why would you want to fight against these constitutional principles ?

exodus - The only violation of law that is defined by the Constitution is treason. Any other violation of law by an individual is the resopnsibility of the many States, or the People.
tpaine - The Constitution -- shall be the supreme Law of the Land, and ---- every state shall be bound thereby, -- Why would you want to fight against this basic principle?
exodus - Oh, I don't fight that at all, I believe in the Rule of Law. Show me the passage in the Constitution that defines murder.
