Right, and the minority that rules this country is a group that has authority over the individuals in it.
Also... if the fox hadn't stopped to shite, he'd have caught supper. But he didn't. Likewise with the constitution.. If it were being followed, then things would be different.
I don't care about what the constitution says, I care about what it has allowed. The same goes for people... I don't care what you say, nor do I pay any attention to it. I only have concern with what you do.
So you can if then until you draw your last breath. But the bottom line is that we do not live in a free country and frankly, never have. Moreover, we will never live in a free country unless or until people finally decide to stop pointing guns at one another or, hiring henchmen to do it for them.
But you already know that, because almost everything you wrote could have come from the mouth of an anarchist... save all the bleating about the constitution nt being followed.
Of course it's not being followed. It was never meant to be followed and if you weren't blinded by this fantasy that using violence to get your way is somehow moral, you'd realize it. ;-)
Oh and, I've read the constitution ad nauseum. I used to keep about a dozen pocket sized copies of it on hand to give to people. But that was before I actually started looking at what people do instead of listening to what they say...
In a nutshell, the constitution is bad because it has been ignored by the few and this has been allowed by the masses? Where do you get the idea that is was never meant to be followed?
Also a MINORITY having power over the masses is an oligarchy. I still don't think you grasp what a republic actually is nor what the constitution lays out.
I am not at all for anarchy, anarchy = barbarism (might makes right) very quickly.
Now how does the USA intervening in another sovereign nation's civil war enter into your worldview about morality?
