I'm sorry. You don't need legal training to read and understand most of the Constitution. Much of it is fairly plain and straightforward. Much of the "context"

I'm sorry. You don't need legal training to read and understand most of the Constitution. Much of it is fairly plain and straightforward. Much of the "context" you speak of often comes after the fact. I would suggest rather than trying to beat a worn out point you take half an hour and actually read the document. You can do it... even without a law degree. We can read it.. we can see if it is manifestly being violated, we can vote accordingly. That is the intent. The intent is not that we are governed by an army of lawyers twisting a document into whatever they choose.
- gnaritas 11y agoDon't play superior, you're not; I've read it more than a few times and worked in law enforcement. You think your interpretation is somehow right while ignoring the reality that reasonable people disagree on the meaning of it and denying they even can. You're blinded by your own ideology. We're done.
- jqm 11y agoI'm sorry you think I'm playing superior. That's not my intent. I'm also sorry you feel as you do. I think I've made my point. You seem to be deliberately ignoring it. You appear to have heard something and are parroting it without thinking about it. I don't think that's the best thing to do. And I agree, we are done.
