Why don't you ask that of the victims of the Endangered Species Act who have seen Federal goons in bullet proof vests take their land?

The Rehnquist Court bitch-slapped Oregon for pulling that with a man's coastal property that he wanted to build on. They threw "environmental" regulations on him that forbade his use of the property, he sued, and SCOTUS crushed the Green goons.

The ESA derives its authority by treaty.

No treaty can strip us of the BoR or repeal an article or clause of the Constitution. That's where the bien-pensant a-holes get off the bus.

Sir, that doesn't stop them. They know that your Oregon hero spent millions and a decade or so to win his case. They'll just do it again on another pretext. "Sue us."

With all due respect (and in general, I do respect your posts), you don't know what you're talking about here. Treaties on the books now so wildly exceed Constitutionally enumerated powers that this point isn't even worth entertaining.
