Not when it overrides the express enumerated powers of the federal government as outlined in the US Constitution it doesn't.

Source please. Where in the U. S. Constitution does it state that the federal government has the right to kill citizens for the crime of being disabled? Where does it state that this federal right overrides the God given right to life?

I'll not go into this again with you two. Especially after yellow's statement "God's laws override any law passed by man.". That is indeed true. However, our nation of states was established as a nation with no overriding Christian denomination at the national level, for very apparent reasons. Therefore, the Framers were clear that as to issues that 'concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people' those rights and limitations lay at the state level.

The federal government has no right to 'kill citizens for the crime of being disabled', nor does it have an enumerated right to interfere with the internal affairs of the state or the 'lives, liberties, and properties of the people'. Of course that was the original intent as understood by the Framers. Are you now questioning their logic as well?

What truly frightens me is that someone comes into power at the national level, destroying any and all aspects of federalism, and establishing what you feel is the correct form of religion and government. As evidenced by their writings and Madison's little document called the US Constitution, it is clear the Framers were concerned as well
