"And no, I don't subscribe to that "living document" nonsense. But is a static interpretation of all after more than 200 years reasonable? I am torn."You betcha, Annie. What good are rules if they change every quarter or inning? The Constitution must not change just because our society has become increasingly lazy, stupid, and perverse. The principles of liberty never go out of date, regardless of how technology causes our society to evolve.

Thank you for your input. I do appreciate it.
I guess my dilemma is that we are a much different society than when the Founders wrote the Constitution, for which I have terrific respect. They were truly visionary.
As for the rules changing, what about the Instant Replay before making a call in football? Why is there sudden death in pro-football, but not in college games? Again, I am not being a wise-guy.

The communistic democrats continue to undermine the constitution and bill of rights knowing full well that the final result will be totalatarian government which they, in their foolish arrogance, plan to control. Gun control, speech control, gender and race control,Christian control, these are the step by step means of imposing their communist agenda and facilitate the U.N. subjegation of America's liberties and rights. This is what democrats hope for.
Hopefully, their end will come first. It's up to the people who vote these criminals in.
