At this point the only way to avoid a constitutional crisis is to shut down the Constitution. It might be the best of a bad set of options. We can’t afford a constitutional crisis

Free speech is perhaps America’s most sacred principle, and America’s ongoing commitment to it is in no way intended as an impugnment of Finland. To suggest so is ludicrous.

I am inclined to agree. The section invoking the Constitution is fiendishly manipulative. I am reminded that one of the Devil’s greatest weapons is his ability to quote Scripture to confound believers.

Rock n roll is a bastion of unsentimental meritocracy —one of America’s foundational values. Inferior songs must make way for superior songs. That is the law of meritocracy put into practice.

You know which staff member has been ungreying trolls?  Pray tell.

The Constitution permits this, unfortunately.

Let’s be honest, shall we. There will never be enough votes to amend the Constitution for D.C. statehood. It’s a wholly unrealistic fantasy.

Such secrecy measures, extraordinary or not, are the President’s Constitutional prerogative, and not unwarranted given the endemic leaking he has endured at the hands of loose-lipped subordinates.

If we’re being perfectly honest, George Washington was both a traitor and a rebel and would’ve been punished accordingly if the British had successfully quelled the American Revolution. Every one of America’s Founding Fathers was a traitor. If you’re an American, treason is in your blood.

All these shooter troubles will be over very quickly after America revives her sacred commitment to well-regulated people’s Militias as enshrined in the 2nd amendment of the Constitution.

It’s odd that you choose to direct your ire at voters instead of at Ginsburg and Breyer, who are literally 100% responsible for their continued presence on the court beyond the 2016 elections. Both could have retired a few years ago. Both chose not to.  If you want to rant about somebody’s stupid behavior, logically

Illegal? Poppycock. We have clear precedent that federal statutes may be waived by the President if he can find a lawyer to write him a permission slip. This was the legal basis for President Obama’s decision not to prosecute torturers. No crimes were committed because a lawyer told the torturers they wouldn’t get in

NO! There’s no fighting in the Constitution. The Founding Fathers had seen the violent overthrow of kings and the bloody aftermath and did not want that for America.

Genetic alteration has grave implications for criminal justice. If a person has altered his DNA, he is technically a different person. So a person could commit serious crimes, then alter his DNA, and then be exempt from prosecution for all crimes committed prior to the DNA alteration.  It’s a license to get away with

Americans(including teachers) who served in colonial militias defeated King George’s finest professional soldiers on the battlefield, which was a far more chaotic and violent environment than any classroom. If a teacher can shoot a redcoat dead, he/she can certainly do the same to a criminally insane child.

Inadequate training is a red herring. A muzzle-loading musket is a more difficult weapon to operate than any modern firearm, yet Americans of all walks of life served in people’s militias in America’s early years, including teachers.

The 2nd amendment of the Constitution says a well-regulated Militia is necessary to the security of a free State. In the days of the Founding Fathers, teachers were just as apt to serve in militias as any other Americans.
