Justice Scalia: 'Constitution is not a living organism'

Of course it is not. If it was, the left would argue for your right to “marry” it.

Or abort it.

Yo, Scalia, Thomas, Alito and any other guy you can get:
Shudda-uppa-you face until you figure out how to tell me

(a) Who is a citizen?
(b) What is a Natural Born Citizen?
(c) Was The Mombasa MF then, and are Cruz, Rubio, and Jindal eligible to run for POTUS now?

What? I gotta draw youse a map?

Excellent, excellent, excellent.

Your stretches are not stretches at all. The founding fathers wanted to protect our freedoms. New technology does not create loopholes in those freedoms; it creates expansions of them.

I would add that as far as the 2d amendment goes, the citizens right to keep and bear arms should include anything that the government might have in its arsenal. Part of the purpose of that amendment is so that I can protect myself from the government. We should not cower in fear at the superior weaponry available to the government. And yes, I would not be too keen on my next door neighbor building a nuke. I haven’t quite thought that through. But since we are nowhere near that point, I figure I have some time to mull it over.
