Our Constitutional Rights

[Konocti's Wigwam]

I believe in our Constitution and I do believe it's holding up pretty well considering everything been tossed at it over my lifetime.

This is where me and you differ. I do believe in the Constitution, but I don't think it's been holding up very well. If it was, we wouldn't have 100 years of tyranny, trying to take our guns away. I would agree, they haven't come for the guns just yet, but they are trying, and I don't trust them one single bit.

You think the Constitution is holding up to what Biden and Harris keep saying and doing? That sack of you know what needs to be impeached.

How's that Constitution holding up on the southern border? How's it holding up when they let criminals back on the street, or don't prosecute them?

You call this holding up? We need help...and Thomas is doing what he can.

If you think the Constitution is holding up well, you’ve got your head buried so deep….

Hear, hear!

Hear, hear!

See, it's working just fine. You and I can have completely different views on the subject. As for Thomas... he is a disgrace to the appointment.

 

[JT27]

Having a discourse with someone with contrasting views and not going apeshit on each other is called civility. That has nothing to do with the constitution.

 

[JT27]

The man takes bribes and gifts with no remorse .
If you like corrupt judges that’s fine but I do not.

Where is the evidence? I’d really like to know. I think Thomas is without a doubt our best constitutional justice but if he is taking bribes, I’d like to see the proof of that.

Justice Clarence Thomas might be the most egregious when it comes to taking gifts and not disclosing them, but he’s not alone. His colleagues on the U.S. Supreme Court also haven’t been shy about taking fancy freebies from rich people

I agree, we can't believe everything we hear/see on media. Some people believe that Trump slept with that sloppy whore, even my own daughter believes it.

I encourage everyone to vote, no matter how you want to, it's important that we all vote. I do not encourage anyone to CHEAT, mislead, or do anything illegal with the system, and this is what's happening.

I never approved that Biden/Harris would give my future social security or medicare to illegal immigrants.

OMG, the L.A. Times is a source of information? I wish I could believe any of those that you list.

Are you prepared to give up your firearms?

Thank you, because I'm planning on doing just that.

Neither have I but make no mistake that my own Republican Party has stood opposed to social security since the thirties and if not for LBJ we would not have Medicare and Medicaid as you know it today.
My party has been pushing for privatizing both for years and telling me it’s broke but they sure keep dipping into it for wasteful spending and I won’t vote for anyone that backs that proposal.

Well, let me be the first to say that I would be ok with nothing, but that goes for all of the illegals also. All legal citizens should get the same, nothing more, nothing less.

There is no convincing me that leaving the southern border open is good, and that letting people into the country unknowing who they are or what they have done? I can't go along with that.

I don't really have a party, as I consider myself to be a liberal who believe in the 2nd Amendment. LBJ is a great example of how the left has heisted our Constitution. Because of LBJ, we have the unconstitutional GCA68. The civil rights movement started with Kennedy, LBJ is merely a me-too.

 

[jds holler]

----- but I understand that gun owners and church goers are the 2 groups who vote the least. We must get the vote out and remember we are not voting for Trump, the man, we are voting for the 2nd amendment, freedom of speech and a whole list of things. -----

{THANKS FORUM BOSS FOR LETTING US VENT)

I've heard it said that if these two groups voted along the lines of their beliefs, that the liberal progressive movement would never win an election. Many of us here belong to both groups. I say, LETS MAKE IT HAPPEN!! No one on this forum should think twice about HOW they need to vote, or IF they're going to vote. Just get your ass out and vote, and get three or four of your buddies to do the same. jd

I agree, EVERYONE needs to get out and vote, I have felt that way for years. These are years of me being infringed on multiple rights and violations of the constitution, the system has deviated from what it was meant to be, and now we can't even agree on what the founding fathers wanted.

No matter who you believe is the right candidate, I encourage everyone to get off their duff, and get out and vote on Nov. 5th. That is our power, the power of the people in that the majority, whatever way it may go, are the deciding factor. I also expect a "fair" election, we seem to have wandered from that idea. I'm not finger pointing, I'm blaming both parties.

As a part of the voting populace, we should have honest and fair elections for both sides.

 

[jackieschmidt]

I can’t remember who coined it, but I like the statement that says……”The United States Constitutional Republic is one of the worst Governments ever established……,except for all of he others”.

I take the good with the bad.

Ok then.

Something something about sand and the head.

"Cadre of conservative billionaire donors..."

Talk about forests and trees now. Those "billionaires" are always the same. Same group. Same pack. Both sides. Intermarried. Related. Friends behind the scenes.

And there is no such thing as a "conservative" (meaning God fearing, moral, nationalist, populist, America first Constitutionalist) billionaire... Doesn't exist. A fabrication. A fairy tale.

 

[JT27]

Can’t disagree with that

I'd like to think that you're wrong, but I'd say you're at least close to right.
Prolly most folks who get to that level think they ARE God. And many of them have probably crossed the line of morality and as far as the US Constitution goes, they seem forever busy finding ways to bend or subvert it. jd

 

[Knotwild]

I've been around some rich people in relaxed conditions. They will support the side that profits the most or the candidate they own. They are all the same.

You must understand - Democrat, Republican, Libertarian - the plan is to keep the population divided. United we stand, divided we fall.

 

[JoeDuke]

Democrats and republican politicians are two sides of the same coin. As said above, the plan is to keep us divided. They really dont care which side is in office. Democrats tell us they want to spend our money and then do it. Republicans tell us they want to save our money. And then they spend it. Both sides get it back from the lobbyists.

 

[jxb]

Show me a good honest politician who's trying to do right by their constituents and I'll point out they almost certainly new to politics and in their first few years at it. Doesn't take long and they all are after their own interests and if not outright dishonest they certainly aren't ethical any longer.

There's two things nobody can take from you, honesty and integrity, those you have to give away and once you've done that there's no getting it back, no undo button.
