I said _treat_ it as valid. There are many valid laws we don't treat as valid (such as international ones).
It was a genuine question though; I was wondering if someone more knowledgeable than I knew how it would be handled :)

- IncRnd 6y agoI agree 100% with your point but would just make one change to the wording. The Bill of Rights isn't made up of laws.
- JoeAltmaier 6y agoWell, they have binding legal force. They are Law. So, a kind of Super Law.
- IncRnd 6y agoThey are Amendments that enshrine rights and limit the Federal Government. Amendments take more than a simple majority to pass, which is all a law takes.
- IncRnd 6y agoInternational Laws should not be expected to have juirisdiction inside of the United States.
- wwright 6y agoThat is certainly the opinion of the United States ;) (I'm referring to the laws being ignored by the US government itself, to be clear)
- IncRnd 6y agoAh, yes. I see. There is no doubt that the Federal Government ignores a number of Federal laws. More importantly, I believe, they ignore the US Constitution and Amendments.
