Who do you say determines which "acts of the legislature" are "repugnant."
We the people; -- we all do, as exemplified by booze prohibition. The repugnant Volstead Act was enforced & upheld by all fed & state 'authorities', but the people flat out refused to obey.
The Eighteenth Amendment (Prohibition) was repealed by the Twenty-first Amendment.
No kidding.
During the tenure of Prohibition, organized crime benefited tremendously by defying the law. I suppose if you want to class organized crime as "we the people," your previous argument has some merit.
Lots of ordinary people ignored prohibition. It was very 'unorganized' crime on a very local level.
The same is basically true with the Volstead Act prohibiting the sale, manufacture and transportation of alcoholic beverages within the United States. The Volstead Act was also repealed.
No kidding?
It would seem that the Constitution was followed in both cases.
What was your point?
My point was answering your rather inane question, lucky boy.. -- Now you've got me concerned again about your memory...
