Dozens of students at the University of Florida said the U.S. Constitution should be abolished and even signed a petition to do away with it.
"It should be abolished," one student told Campus Reform in a man on the street-style interview published Thursday. "It’s time for a new Constitution."
"The time period was rich old white men and that's exactly what that document says, and stands for and vouches for," another student added when asked if the Constitution is a symbol of the patriarchy.

The Who
“Won’t Get Fooled Again”
We’ll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song
I’ll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again
The change, it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fold, that’s all
And the world looks just the same
And history ain’t changed
‘Cause the banners, they are flown in the last war
I’ll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again
No, no!
I’ll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I’ll get all my papers and smile at the sky
Oh I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do ya?
There’s nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by the bye
And a parting on the left
Is now a parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight
I’ll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again
Don’t get fooled again
No, no!
Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss
The National Archives has already relegated it to hate speech.
you can’t fix stupid
They don’t understand that the Founding Fathers were the true revolutionaries who sought liberty (freedom FROM government) , which is best for everyone.
I’m sure they’d be happy replacing the Constitution with something more to their liking like the Communist manifesto or Mao’s Little Red Book.
They have NO IDEA what they are asking for.
You’re in free fall and you abandon your chute??
They want it replaced by a totalitarian dictatorship. They would be happy with that. They would like it if they were all equally poor, drove the same clunker, lived in the same drab apartments, with the ruling elite living in luxury.
But they are too stupid to know what they are really asking for.
The same people would likely ban the Bible and force “judgmental” houses of worship to lose their tax exemption and be shuttered (mosques excluded).
How stupid they are!
It’s okay. The Constitution grants these people the freedom to say stoopid stuff.
Rudyard Kipling - Gods of the Copybook Headings:
We were living in trees when they met us. They showed us each in turn
That Water would certainly wet us, as Fire would certainly burn:
But we found them lacking in Uplift, Vision and Breadth of Mind,
So we left them to teach the Gorillas while we followed the March of Mankind.
We moved as the Spirit listed. They never altered their pace,
Being neither cloud nor wind-borne like the Gods of the Market Place,
But they always caught up with our progress, and presently word would come
That a tribe had been wiped off its icefield, or the lights had gone out in Rome.
With the Hopes that our World is built on they were utterly out of touch,
They denied that the Moon was Stilton; they denied she was even Dutch;
They denied that Wishes were Horses; they denied that a Pig had Wings;
So we worshipped the Gods of the Market Who promised these beautiful things.
When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace.
They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.
But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: “Stick to the Devil you know.”
On the first Feminian Sandstones we were promised the Fuller Life
(Which started by loving our neighbour and ended by loving his wife)
Till our women had no more children and the men lost reason and faith,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: “The Wages of Sin is Death.”
In the Carboniferous Epoch we were promised abundance for all,
By robbing selected Peter to pay for collective Paul;
But, though we had plenty of money, there was nothing our money could buy,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: “If you don’t work you die.”
Then the Gods of the Market tumbled, and their smooth-tongued wizards withdrew
And the hearts of the meanest were humbled and began to believe it was true
That All is not Gold that Glitters, and Two and Two make Four
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings limped up to explain it once more.
As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man
There are only four things certain since Social Progress began.
That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire,
And the burnt Fool’s bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire;
And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!
Lucky for them, the Constitution allows for them to hate on the Constitution.
” there’s not a thing wrong with the constitution.”
Disagree. Term limits for Congress is not in it.
Roll Tide.
Ok, just kidding. But Damn!
“Dozens of students” at a University of 50,000.
More horseshit from our side now.
UF also has a ton of international students.
Was everyone questioned an actual US citizen?
These people were not in my ChemE and EE classes.
You SOB!...
:)
Can you imagine what a new constitution written by 18 year olds would look like? Politically correct, woke, non-binary gender all inclusive (42), no borders, world citizenship, socialist liberal leaning... I’m sure I can’t even imagine how far their agenda would reach.
Limit or remove the interstate commerce clause which says Congress shall have power "to regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes." which the courts and Congress have misused to regulate interstate commerce, intrastate commerce and completely non-commerce private activities.
The new stupid American hating recruits have arrived.
THE TRUTH, they can't live in peace with people who aren't bothering them now. in a truly free society, these kids would get knocked on their ass 5 feet from their front door. there will be no hot shower's because all the powerplants will be destroyed, no clean water, no electricity, no free pizzas, they won't even have food.
now , stop disrespecting yourself and stop listening to stupid.
