The federal employees didn’t believe in ‘stare decisis,’ when they invented Row v.s. Wade.

Up until then for the previous nearly 200 years the federal government had no athourty to effect the domeaic laws upon abortion or the extent of the protection of state laws against murder.

You can’t have it both ways, laws eyther mean what they meant when they were written or they mean nonthing at all, and we the people have no power over our government.

What about the ‘living evolving’ constitution??

The idea is that as people get more and more educated than the previous generations they get smarter and smarter and get better ideas ‘what should have and not have been in the constitution’ ?

Like replacing the ‘bear arms’ with ‘a woman's right to choose’ ?

Doesnt the word ‘choose’ sound so liberatarian?

Everyone loves choices
