Well there are other sections of the Constitution, and then of course we have state laws. I think the framers assumed the states would have statutes in their criminal codes regarding murder of illegals or unnaturalized residents. These days, if they didn't, the 5th amendment would be invoked in a hurry. Don't mess with Bork when he is speaking within his area of expertise. JMO.

I thought I pinged you here. Todays run must have sucked the oxygen out of my brain.
I am interested in your informed opinion on how much the Constitution should be allowed to breathe. It is something I'm having trouble getting my arms around.
