As Levin has said, if they (the elected, the judges and justices, the appointed czars) have no respect for the Supreme Law of the Land, our Constitution, what respect could they possible have for the “lesser laws” and regulations? They have already shown the answer to that: none, as they ignore every law they dislike or change them on whims. That’s not law, that’s the very definition of tyranny and under what we now live.

In expanding upon that point and the question of whether or not they would respect the outcome or even call to any convention. We should be laying the groundwork for a cultural and political revolution to overthrown them should they not.

Ignoring the new Amendments coming out of a Constitutional convention would be a clear sign of their tretruy which is why they would be unlikely to do so at first.

Instead their army of litigators and political corruption will seek to rewrite our law into their laws over time in the same mamner and capacity have already done with our constitution over the last 80 years.

The only way to curtail this effort is to install practical checks upon their power with inheirt intrest derived from the power of our States.

The United States Senate uses to serve this capacity indirectly with some limited success back when they were appointed by legislators as originally designed. Short of restoring that limited but oringal check we could simply invent a new one.

I think the suggestion of 3/5th of our State lelgsdators acting on anything with in a period of two years is a bit nutty given the nature of State legislators. A decade may be a more realistic expectation, two decades reasonable.

State legislators like congress are by intentional design of our founders easily deadlocked. They must as a result be given ample time and elections to resolve matters of high importance such as law. Leaving smaller day to day tasks to the excursive.
