Now the idiot says, "You might try to read the 14th amendment, the most important in the Constitution after the 1st, and come to terms that the 10th has been as irrevocably modified by the 14th as the 21st was by the 18th."

I suppose next he will suggest that the BILL OF RIGHTS should be modified or repealed.

Yep, he's frothing at the mouth and lying in all directions now.

It's really funny when Ol'BJ blows a seal...not that there's anything wrong with that.

If it weren't for the Fifth Amendment, the prisons would probably be overflowing with minorities.

[RBJ] The vast majority of slave owners (and TRAITORS) lived in the South.

The slave owners are no more. The TRAITORS seem to be in New England and California, with perhaps some other infestations in places such as Illinois and NYC. Occasionally they show up on FR. To be totally safe from their presence one can go to any recruiting station. They never go there.

[RBJ] the Slave-owning traitors (the ones who ACTUALLY OWNED slaves, as opposed to the poor deluded masses they led by the nose) were never really interested in the Constitution, they just wanted free labor to cut the cotton and free, ahem, girlfriends in the shacks when the wife was away in town.

It is sometimes surprising to learn the identity of those who "were never really interested in the Constitution." Dickie Dunn RBJ wrote it, it must be true.

That RBJ Traitor Jefferson, author of "all men are created equal" and, ahem, close companion of a young lady named Sally Hemings (when Ms. Jefferson was not around).

Thomas Jefferson in 1769 offered a reward for the return of his mulatto slave Sandy: £2 if captured within Albemarle County, £4 if captured elsewhere in Virginia, and £10 if brought back from another colony.

RBJ traitor Washington, toiling tirelessly all day. It was tough work writing letters and advertisements all day, but somebody had to do it.

ON APRIL 19, 1775, the day of the memorable clashes at Lexington and Concord, two British-born indentured servants launched their own personal rebellion in Fairfax County, Virginia. Thomas Spears (carpenter, pock-marked and freckled, with a drawling voice) and William Webster (brickmaker, well-built, with a roundish face and a broad Scots accent) slipped away from their master's plantation under the cover of night and headed down the Potomac in a small boat. George Washington described them carefully in an advertisement that he placed in the Virginia Gazette at Williamsburg. He offered twenty dollars apiece for their capture. The men may have been still at large in June, when Washington accepted appointment as commander in chief of the Continental Army and set out for Massachusetts. By autumn, however, both had returned, or been returned, to Mount Vernon.

Runaways were a common feature of late colonial society, and from Virginia northward, especially, they included white persons as well as black. Washington, who had a relatively small number of white servants on his plantation, was more often bothered by the flight or truancy of a slave. On August 2, 1771, for example, he made this entry in his diary: " At home all day a writing letters and advertisements of Harry who run away the 29th."
