The wonderful elastic amendment number 14, section 1, “equal protection.” See “abortion on demand.”

Another ping to you guys who think the 14th amendment was such a great idea.

(I can't speak up for everyone on your 14th Ammendment ping list, but please don't lump me in with anyone who you claim supports it. As you know my position is that the 14th was not Lincoln's doing.)

Carry on.

The First Amendment expressly limits only the power of Congress. Do we need the 14th Amendment to protect us from states that might want to deny you any freedom of speech, religion, etc? There might be some good with the bad here.
