Dog Gone ignores Article VI:

"-- The Bill of Rights is a limitation on the Federal government, not a limitation on state or local government. --"


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


dirtboy:
However, the 14th extended the BOR to the states.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Dog Gone ignores "life, liberty or property":

"-- It [the 14th] doesn't explicitly say that, and the Supreme Court hasn't ruled that it says that. --"


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Article VI explicitly says that States officials are bound to support our Law of the Land.
And Supreme Court opinions are not "rules" or laws.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Dog gone admits the facts are as above:

"-- I described the current state of constitutional law in this country. --"


"-- Your denial of that and your typical resort to name-calling doesn't impress me at all.
Save your insults for someone who gives a rat about what you think, tpaine. --"


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Commenting that you've simply swallowed the 'majority rule' statist line/hook -- and are too proud to admit it; -- are not name calling insults DG.
They are the truth as you yourself put it. -- We can all agree that you not only "-- described the current state of 'constitutional law' in this country. --".
-- You agree with its most insidious precept, that "-- The Bill of Rights is a limitation on the Federal government, not a limitation on state or local government. --"

This precept allows States & local governments to ignore an individuals rights to life. liberty, or property. Allowing that violates an oath to support & defend those rights. -- Admit it.

SNORE.

If you don't understand constitutional law, please don't try to teach it, because you look ridiculous.
