You deny the truth when it is placed directly in front of you. To make it a little more obvious for you, I asked the question directly to our resident constitutional attorney...

"Could congress pass a law that clarifies 924 in how it applies to LEO’s in the line of duty or “undeclare” it as you have stated in a way that would allow Ramos and Compean to be released from the 10 year mand?"

"Yea, they could. But if Congress does anything, it will probably take the easy route and cut the funding."

Now if this isn't plain enough to get through your thick head, nothing will.

You AND congress, both taking the easy route.

Chow baby.

I'd certainly be interested in hearing how they could do that because it seems to violate everything I've read.

But, I have no interest in trying to carry on a conversation through you since you can't carry on a discussion without throwing around personal insults and posting juvenile graphics. If the resident constitutional attorney would like to dialogue directly, fine. I find no benefit in continuing this dialogue with you.

I already asked you specific questions that you were either unwilling or incapable of responding to. I'm still interested in answers to those, if Congressmanbillybob would be so kind as to answer.

I ask you, exactly which crime would you have Congress "undeclare"? 18 U.S.C. §924(c)(1)(A)(iii)]? All of 924(c)? Are you now suggesting that the solution you were previously suggesting, 100 posts ago, was for Congress to unwrite the law, thereby relieving tens of thousands of criminals of sentences handed down under this law? Or, are you suggesting that the resident FR Constitutional attorney believes that a law could be undeclared and applied only to the case of Ramos and Compean, but leaving all other criminals sentences unchanged? Somehow, I don't think he is going to agree with that one.
