Exactly the point that everyone is refusing to acknowledge.
Article V only works when there is still respect for the foundational rule of law.
The Oligarchy in power no longer considers itself beholden to the Constitution and therefore adding anything to it and expecting them to abide by it is absurd.
If we would be free men and want our Rights as endowed by our Creator - then we will have to fight for them, via very UNCIVIL means.
Because Tyrants are not restrained by civil means.
I would agree we need to fight for them, but we CAN do it in a civil manner, at least, for the time being. Active Civil Resistance - as I've mentioned many times, the answer is in the Declaration of Independence:
"Governments are instituted...deriving their just powers from the CONSENT of the governed."
It's time we stop consenting. That doesn't mean we have to break the law. It means we need to make the sacrifices necessary (freedom isn't free - that doesn't just apply to our men & women in uniform). Go Galt. Check out. Stop consenting to the tyranny. No laws need broken. We just need to check out. Of course, that means the loss of our jobs, mortgages, bank accounts, etc. but again, freedom isn't free. We are either patriots who will stand, or we will kneel and accept our chains like good subjects.
Article V won't change anything at this point since, as you point out, it will be ignored anyhow.
