Last week, the Supreme Court eviscerated a woman’s right to abortion, undermined Miranda rights, expanded gun rights and allowed border patrol agents to operate with even further impunity. Today, it ruled that a former Washington state high school football coach can pray on the field immediately after games—regardless of the religious backgrounds of the students.

It does not matter that many were slaveowners.
It does not matter that all of them were White.
It does not matter that all of them were Male.
It does not matter that it was written long ago...and that the writers and ratifiers of it are long dead.
It remains current law. If you want to change it there is an amending process. Just persuade enough of your fellow citizens as to the rightness of your cause that you can get an amendment passed by each house of Congress by a 2/3rds supermajority and then 3/4 of the states ratify it. Then you can have whatever changes you want. Its as simple as that.
The feathers might be noticable, but the tar won’t.
Civilization was created by slave owners. There aren’t any now.
What of it?
Eyeglasses were invented by Whitemen. Off with the glasses, Candace. YOU’RE APPROPRIATING WHITE CULTURE!!
Why is this POS even here? If you have a problem with our Constitution, leave. I promise that we will not mind at all.
The US Constitution is the charter of our nation. No Constitution, no nation.
There are people who are not built for a representative republic like our’s. They just lack the intellectual capability for it.
They really should seek to live their lives somewhere else. Because if they continue to try to force us to change what we have it will come to blows.
Today's "morality and social acumen" is decidedly inferior to that of 250 years ago. 250 years ago, they knew that men were men, that women were women, that sodomy was an abomination, that marriage was a covenant between one man and one woman, that government existed to serve the people, that killing babies was wrong, that erasing history was stupid and evil, that we are all answerable to God Almighty ... by those standards of morality and society, today's culture stands judged and condemned, and rightly so.
Yang for the Ying:
The Left is Literally Dominated by Progressives: Why are Americans so Opposed to them Usurping the US Constitution?
Even her characterization of facts are false. It is sad that someone this ignorant is spreading opinion amongst her ...community.
SCOTUS didn’t eviscerate right to abortion. They just got out of the judicial rights-creation business, and returned this issue to the democratic process.
SCOTUS did not change Miranda requirements. They said no to felons suing for damages because they weren’t Mirandized. The effects of not Mirandizing suspects remain exactly as they were.
SCOTUS ruled that a religious person could pray and others could voluntarily join in after an athletic event.
Preventing them from voluntarily praying on their own time clearly infringes the free exercise of religion.
Don’t know anything about the Border Patrol ruling, but the BP does not exactly have the upper hand on illegal immigration.
The Constitution was drafted in great part by Gouverneur Morris, an opponent of slavery, who saw it as contradictory to the whole purpose of the Constitution and the new USA. Slavery entered the Constitution as a compromise to get South Carolina to join the union — the idea that most of the delegates to the Constitutional Convention were pro-slavery is nonsense.
“Only 2 states (Georgia and South Carolina) dug their heels in and said they wouldn’t help start the nation unless they could keep slaves.”
I reject what that woman said but you are not helping matters.
Two states could not have stopped the founding of this nation. The U.S. Constitution could have been ratified with just nine states.
You’d think with glasses that size she’d be able to see, but that’s just an optical illusion.
I guarantee you ... she WILL notice the tar.

Spiritual blindness and demonic oppression are not cured by mere optical devices.
May God grant her the grace of repentance and conversion.
Their MO is to always change the rules when they lose the game. The sibling that throws the board and game pieces screaming It’s not fair!!
So only perfect people get to write a Constitution ir set up a government? We’ll never have one.
Meanwhile, that constitution written by some people who were slaveholders (and some were not) has produced a country that sucks so much that literally millions of people come here every year and millions more want to come here. If this idiot thinks the country is so bad because some of the people who wrote our constitution nearly 240 years ago were slaveholders, she is free to GTFO. Meanwhile, we are going to keep our constitution, ALL of it. Especially including the 2nd Amendment.
Funny how these people who bitch the most about the Constitution live in the same country that allows them to bitch about the Constitution.
So you are telling me that of all 13 slave states in existence at the time, all but 2 were willing to forgo slavery? This does not ring true. It sounds made up.
Further evidence? Well when Jefferson tried to make the Declaration explicitly anti-slavery, the rest of the committee overrode him and had him remove that language.
In fact, they put in a "cause" which said:
"He has incited domestic insurrections amongst us..."
And this refers to efforts to trigger a slave rebellion by offering freedom to slaves. (Lord Dunmore's proclamation.)
