A Constitutional convention to originate amendments is exactly how you hold such a "discussion".

If the tyrants don't abide by the existing Constitution, what makes you think they will abide by a new one?

Make no mistake, a new one will be an abomination and will lack any meaningful Bill of Rights.

If the tyrants don't abide by the existing Constitution, what makes you think they will abide by a new one?

Rods of iron, and eternal vigilance against their interest....and their toadies, henchboys, and enablers.

Make no mistake, a new one will be an abomination and will lack any meaningful Bill of Rights.

If the wrong people write it, yes.......so you get on your state Lege to reject it (or Else)......and write another, with better attention to the original, and to kicking ass on the people who want to compromise the process, and you, and all of us, no matter what their nominal politics might be, and whether they tell you they're from the Left or the Right or Up the Middle.
