An article from the NY Times says we should give up the constitution because it's evil.

I personally am encountering more and more people that say the document is outdated and shouldn't apply; however, most of those same people haven't even read the Constitution since grade school. It is this kind of attack on the American way of life that is happening all throughout our education system.

It's to the point now where you can't even lampoon the left any more.  As soon as you make a joke that liberals want to round up NRA members and deport them to concentration camps, some elected dipshit suggests it.  You jest that liberals want to wipe their ass with the Constitution, and one of them writes a serious op-ed that gets published in the NYT making that exact point. 

think the main point of the article is that people are exploiting the sometimes vague language of the document to achieve goals in underhanded ways.  like, you know, how gun grabbers want to argue that the 2nd amendment only exists to protect the right to a militia, because often times, the language that suits your position is there, if you massage it enough.

In England, before they came to the new world, if anyone spoke out against the government, they would be put to death.

The constitution provided for 1st, freedom of speech.
2nd, freedom to keep AND BEAR arms, because they didn't want to be oppressed by a tyrannical government.

Since the journalist wants the constitution abolished, I vote that the first order of business should be to put to death all the journalists that are bad mouthing the country's constitution.

All in favor...

i've heard way too much talk about throwing away the constitution lately.

The New York Slime is useful for one purpose only: back up toilet paper.

Any rag that has Thomas Freidman giving an op-ed about how we should emulate China's Communist one party system is nothing more than a crypto-communist sewer. The New York Slime is America's version of Izvestia and Pravda when they were run by the Soviet propaganda masters.

1st Amendment is not only about speech (and press) as powerful as that is, it is also freedom from (religious) persecution and right to peaceably assemble (to protest) and to ask that Govt address those wrongs.

It is important to then realize that the 2nd is there immediately following so that should the above Rights be ignored that the Citizens/people have another protected means of address.
