And honestly, the Constitution will always be a hell of an excuse to oppress Black folks on behalf of white supremacy.


Get rid of the Constitution? OK no 1st Amendment for you so STFU!

As far as I’m concerned anyone who renounces our Constitution is committing treason. If they don’t like it, there is a process to modify it.

To me it's amazing that the country was thiiiisssss close to being founded as an abolitionist nation. In both the 1770's when the Declaration was being debated and signed by delegates from the 13 states, and later in the 1780's with the Constitution, 11 of the 13 states were willing to start the nation with slavery outlawed. 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.

And this was in the 18th century (that's 1700's to those of you in Rio Linda). I see it as the First Great Awakening batting a couple of singles to get some men on base but not quite bring them home, then the Second Great Awakening hitting some singles and doubles to bring home the runners and win the game.

To me, what God did through the great awakenings is nothing short of amazing.

Obviously, the remedy is to get rid of the Constitution and enslave ourselves to the tender mercies of the Department of Justice and little adam schiff.

The Democrat Party was literally founded by slave owners

Why is the Left obsessed with upholding their power?

Candace McDuffie, another confused woman writing this nonsense.

The Constitution is the Supreme Law of the Land ratified by the American People and the States thereof. The Constitution and the Declaration of Independence are maybe the most inspired political documents besides the Bible, ever created, and created the freest country maybe ever guided by just Rule of Law and the envy of the world.

What? Because the Founders were not perfect you want to throw away the framework of the envy of the world? And, what, replace it with your bloody tyranny of the Rule of Man with your oppressive third-world totalitarian government?

Freedom isn’t perfect, but it’s way ahead of whatever’s in second place.

They demand color-blindness for us yet they’re the ones still obsessed with race.

We’re obsessed with upholding it because the Founding Fathers provided it to us because they knew that someday there would be ditzy, braindead broads like Candy McDuffie wandering around America with a “What the ....?” look on their faces who don’t have a whole lot to do with their lives.

Which part of the constitution speaks specifically about or lays out the ground rules for treating slaves. Where in the constitution are slaves or slave owners mentioned. How is the constitution specifically against slaves or any race?

If they don’t like it, they should leave. Just go. Maybe it’s not for you.

it is unfair to judge the past with today’s morality and social acumen... just as those in the past had done to those they thought were of lower status.

judging the enslaved through the tainted scope of superiority as those who they enslaved as less than human, today’s moral judgement unfairly pictures those people in the past as evil and inhumane, when they were just living as life was shown to be.

placing a moral equiveillance on past practices is just as bad as what was practiced in the past; and it would have continued without the foresight of those sought change, not by condemning those in the past, but seeing what the future could be.

Well, Candace, having “white privilege” means I get to play the knock-out game with you.

The word “literally” is a reliable signal you’re dealing with an imbecile.

Do these morons understand the basics of the Constitution, why and how it was written? My ancestors fled to America in 1720, a treacherous trip over the Atlantic. They were escaping religious tyranny, persecution, torture and death with no means of protecting themselves. Their children and grandchildren became patriots in the American Revolution, who vowed to never be at the mercy of a tyrannical rule again. They were poor farmers who NEVER OWNED SLAVES, they were the slaves to their beliefs and they WON. NOW, patriots are being persecuted again, and losing.

Just think. If it wasn’t for those pesky “slaveowners”, Candy would be living in a grass hut, wearing a grass skirt and no shirt while posing for National Geographic. THINK ABOUT IT.
