tpaine likes it that way. He wants to ensure that the BOR in the U.S. Constitution applies to everyone equally. He doesn't trust those yucky states to do it.

Of course, he ignores the fact that with the federal BOR comes the USSC interpretation of those BOR. That how you get the 1st amendment free speech protecting nude dancing, but not political advocacy ads 30 days prior to an election. Insanity that now applies to every state in the union.

Just what the Founding Fathers had in mind.

You got that correct paulsen. I trust no government that is ruled by the 'will of the majority'. Our Constitutional rights suit me fine.

Of course, he ignores the fact that with the federal BOR comes the USSC interpretation of those BOR.

Belied by what I wrote at #29:
- "Yep, the USSC is just as out of control as the Statists" - like paulsen.
