Mystal: U.S. Constitution Is ‘Trash’ Written by Slave-Owning ‘White People’
breitbart ^ | 4 Mar 2022 | PAM KEY

Posted on 03/05/2022 5:26:44 PM PST by MarvinStinson

The Nation’s justice correspondent Elie Mystal said Friday on ABC’s “The View” that the United States Constitution is “trash” written by slave-owning white people.

Discussing his new book “Allow Me to Retort: A Black Guy’s Guide to the Constitution,” Mystal said, “Republicans are obviously trying to manipulate those laws, particularly the rights of minorities, women, and the LGBTQ communities, and I explain it in ways we can understand so we can fight them.”

Co-host Ana Navarro said, “I live in Florida, so I’m, like, on ground zero of where all of this is happening. I’m out of my mind about the bills banning conversations about race and ethnicity and LGBTQ, just even mentioning gender identity in primary schools…Are you arguing for throwing out the Constitution? Should the Constitution be thrown out? What do we do? Is it a living document, or is it a sacred document?”

Mystal said, “It’s certainly not sacred. Let’s start there. The Constitution is kind of trash. Again, let’s just talk as adults for a second.”

Co-host Joy Behar said, “What did you say?”

Mystal said, “It’s kind of trash. It was written by slavers and colonists and white people willing to make deals with slavers and colonists. They didn’t ask anybody who looked like me what they thought about the Constitution.”

He added, “This document was without the consent of black and brown people in this country and without the consent of women. I say if that was the starting point, the very least we can do is ignore what those slavers and colonists and misogynists thought and interpret the Constitution in a way that makes sense for our modern world.”

This guy certainly follows the basic formula which says ignorance plus arrogance equals stupidity.

Discourses during debates abhorred the institution and no one defended its propriety. Gouverneur Morris of Pennsylvania said, “It was a nefarious institution. It was the curse of heaven on states where it prevailed. Compare Middle States where a rich and noble civilization marks prosperity and happiness with….great regions of slaves presenting a desert increasing in proportion to these retched beings”. George Mason of Virginia said, “This infernal traffic originated in the avarice of British merchants…. Slavery discourages arts and manufactures….Every master of slaves is born a petty tyrant….They bring the judgement of heaven on a country. As nations cannot be rewarded or punished in the next world, they must be in this”.

Following the beginning of the rebellion, the country had already seen six of thirteen colonies free slaves and two others abolish the international slave trade. Such initiatives had been prohibited by the Crown and Parliament, which mandated this worldwide system of bondage for their charters, so colonial economic activities would support the mercantile policies of the mother country. Total abolition of slavery would await future debates because settlement was encumbered by Northern economic interests, as well as the supposed profits of Southern planters.

If his ancestors weren’t second-rate warriors, they wouldn’t have been captured by the next tribe up the river and sold into slavery.

He’s a descendant of losers.

The Left has dropped the mask. It hates the Constitution and the people who love it. It is our Fifth Column.

People that look like him?

No wheel

No sailing ships

Very little farming

Can’t dig own wells

Each man has 7 children by each of his 1-12 women folk...just like NBA players..lol

Did they have a written language when “whitey came” to the lands South of the Desert in Africa?

When given a chance at a superior life in the West, instead they make up their own gibberish language and rap music, going from Motown sound and Jazz, to flat out crap. You can easily make a case for devolution in the “black community”.

They disdain those who are also black for getting an education and a job, calling them Uncle Toms and sellouts. Yet African people who migrate here succeed while American born negroes fail. African born negroes HATE American born negroes, think they are lazy, shiftless and irresponsible.

Just sayin’ brothas and sistas.

PS, I KNOW that black men and women can be motivated, intelligent and succeed at anything they put their mind to. It seems that what is shown by, a large majority, is wasted lives. It may be a minority of black people, but it doesn’t seem that way to me.

There are stupid trash freaks that will say anything.

ABC is the network that gave him the national forum for what he was going to say. ABC is more at fault than the clown. ABC is trying to destroy the nation — this guy is just seeing through on his own stupidity.
