True enough, - however, the basic principles of our Constitution cannot be materially changed or 'amended away'.
We have inalienable rights to life, liberty and property that cannot be prohibited by Amendment.
Perhaps not by Amendment, but definitely by judiciary. There is the greatest threat to liberty and property rights.
Unnngh.
This person is spouting a load of claptrap.
I WANT the laws he's objecting to, and so do the majority of Americans.
If it were not possible to pass a law to outlaw kiddie porn, for example, it would continue to exist. How does that serve the interests of our citizenry?
I am not personally in favor of legalizing drugs.
There are some criminal laws that are enhanced by uniformity, and thus I support the right of Congress to pass them.
I've been saying for years now that we need to have a Constitutional Convention once again, to review the US Code. All codes found not to be in compliance with the Constitution should be rescinded.
Unfortunately, when Congress finds that it cannot pass a law they merely pass a regulation. If Congress doesn't pass one or the other, then we still have the judiciary who now writes their own laws.
Bear in mind that all of those rights are qualified in the Bill of Rights and in the 14th Amendment.
No person shall [...] be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation. - 5th Amendment
No State shall [...] deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; [...] - 14th Amendment
That's not to say that I don't agree that the Commerce Clause has been abused beyond all recognition. I simply think it's important to understand that the Constitution qualifies many of the rights that it enumerates.
Actually...if anyone cares about the scriptures...Our Heavenly Father wrote the laws...man is ONLY suppose to follow them and enforce those laws. Man was NEVER suppose to make laws.
This was a 1991 series of 1000 Glock 17s which had special engraving on it. A list of names of all the coalition countries is engraved down the top of the slide; "Operation Desert Storm/January 16-February 27, 1991" is engraved on the right side. On the left side is "New World Order/Commemorative".
BTTT
What ever happened to "A person shall be secure in his papers and possessions".
