If the constitution is indeed a binding contract between the US government and the people, where is your signature on it?

If it quacks like a duck ...

I'm not calling you personally anything.  I'm characterizing the debate and argument tactics you are using, as they happen to be very close to those the Left use when they have nothing with which to back up their points besides false premises, labeling and insults.

It appears you are scraping the bottom of the barrel for your arguments!!   

My representatives signed it, for the most part long before I was born.

The contract is in the document.  Do as I wish, or I will use my rights to petition the government and change representatives to the best of my ability.

you can consent to contracts before you were born? that's a serious assumption.
what of the millions of people that did not for for their representatives? the millions that can't vote? the millions that don't vote?

Do you only follow laws which were enacted during your lifetime, and only after you reached that age of majority?

No?  Why would you be held legally bound to laws passed without a legislative representative agreeing to the laws on your behalf?  You should be able to just ignore all the laws you don't agree with if they were created before you had representation, I guess.   

Aegis, are you a Murray Rothbard disciple?

we probably should.
The only reason i follow laws i haven't agreed to is because i want to. the laws i don't like i don't follow.

The questions that you should be asking are, how many laws do you break each day even though you never agreed to them in the first place? how many laws are there that you don't even know about? How many laws have been created in direct violation of the contract that government is supposedly bound to follow? What happens when the government breaks the contract? What happens when you break the contract that you signed before you were born?

I'm done.  You have taken this thread about as far off topic as anything I've ever seen!

Good night!   

The only reason i follow laws i haven't agreed to is because i want to. the laws i don't like i don't follow.

The current issue involves Syrian refugees.

They might be Muslims, but they are also from a country as you like to point out.  Denying entry to all Syrians, with some exceptions, would be Constitutional and well advised.  We are involved in an armed conflict with Syrians.  Permitting Syrians into the country without the means to properly vet them would be foolish and ill advised.

To the posters saying Trump's suggestion is unconstitutional: I suggest you reread the constitution, because his proposal does NOT violate it.

There are Supreme Court rulings, Fiallo v. Bell and Kleindiest v. Mandel, which proves the point. Also, let's not forget the Immigration and Nationality Act, which grants the President the ability to suspend entry of aliens he deems detrimental to the interests of our society.

Is his proposal a bit much? Perhaps. But it doesn't violate our ruling document. So, instead of spewing leftist talking points about unconstitutionality, maybe you need to research the topic more thoroughly.

Lastly, there is no right for ANYONE to immigrate here. It is a privilege that we, as a people, grant to foreigners. You have to allow strangers into your homes, right? Same applies here.

That "200 year old piece of paper" is what the greatest nation the world has ever seen is founded on.

Amen brother Ed !

That said.....
Wasn't this country based in part on freedom of religion ?

“They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.”
― Benjamin Franklin, Memoirs of the life & writings of Benjamin Franklin

The First Amendment (Amendment I) to the United States Constitution prohibits the making of any law respecting an establishment of religion, impeding the free exercise of religion, abridging the freedom of speech, infringing on the freedom of the press, interfering with the right to peaceably assemble or prohibiting the petitioning for a governmental redress of grievances. It was adopted on December 15, 1791, as one of the ten amendments that constitute the Bill of Rights.

When exercising your religion involves killing people the situation warrants a closer look.

As far as "sweeping generalizations", look at a world map. Thailand, Indonesia, Africa, Europe and of course the ME, all embroiled in violence due to Islam.

You WANT to bring that shit here
