And as conservatives like FOX News legal analyst Peter Johnson Jr. here call for a "second class of citizenship" for children born to undocumented workers, you have to wonder how long it will take before they call for minorities, gays, women and non-Christians to be given the same second-class status as well, because "that's what the Founders were really saying".
The main difference between conservatives and liberals on the Constitution is that liberals ask "How can the Constitution expand rights to the many?", and conservatives ask "How can the Constitution restrict rights to the few?"
Yes, because second-class citizens worked out when it was more or less "unofficial" in an official way.
ReplyDeleteYeah, this will turn out well. Fucking idiot.

ReplyDeleteWhich Constitution are you talking about, the flexible one liberals say they adhere to but has no meaning whatsoever since the definitions of the words within it can change at any time, or the real Constitution? Hell, Zandar admitted the other day that he doesn't believe the U.S. has borders (he doesn't like Arizona's immigration law).
The difference between liberals and conservatives is that liberals live in their isolated, myopic "community-based reality" while conservatives live in reality.
I did not say Arizona has no borders. I said Arizona cannot enforce a law that clearly violates the Constitution.
ReplyDeleteBut I forget, you are the one true arbiter of the Constitution, and we should all default to your myopic view of what is right.
You going to lock this thread too like the BITCH you are?
ReplyDeleteI said Arizona cannot enforce a law that clearly violates the Constitution.
ReplyDeleteJust so you know, the Constitution authorizes state and local law enforcement to enforce federal laws along with state and local laws. That's because we don't live in a country with a fully functional federal police force. All the Arizona law did was complement federal law which the federal government refuses to enforce. What this judge did was use phony Democratic talking points and a complete lack of common sense to make a determination, not the Constitution.
I did not say Arizona has no borders.
I'm talking the United States, of which Arizona and 49 other states are a part. I've seen your posts; you want open borders, as if there is no U.S. border, and you don't want the federal government to follow the rule of law when it comes to illegal aliens. Don't even try to deny it.
