To properly articulate and defend what is stated in the 2nd, 1st, or any other portion of the Constitution, you simply DIAGRAM THE SENTENCE. The words that were used and the way they were used frame the definition of what was meant.
This is why liberals must go about redefining and go about in other ways altering the meaning and usage of words. They do it so that they can then manipulate the minds of people to their point of view. Words form the basis of thought so when you move the meanings of words and their usage, you alter thought.
Either the words in the 2nd mean exactly what they mean when they are defined and used according the rules of the English language, or words are completely of no value for use as a means of communication. EITHER ONE OR THE OTHER.
Liberals can't read when it suits their purpose.
That’s probably why they don’t have youngsters “diagram” sentences anymore.
Read up on “deconstructionism” and the “Postmodern” worldview.
This is what these leftist morons have been trained and “educated” in.
“Feminist studies” is notorious for its “deconstructionist” views of historical documents. Basically, their viewpoint is that the writers of those documents were white, sexist, patriarchical, male slaveholders, so their writings should be dismissed as meaningless.
