Why I believe the Constitution is not "living"

Because of things like this.

At issue is whether governments can forcibly seize homes and businesses, for private economic development. Under a practice known as eminent domain, a person's property may be condemned and the land converted for a greater "public use." It has traditionally been employed to eliminate slums, or to build highways, schools or other public works.

The New London case tests the muscle of local and state governments to raise what they see as much-needed revenue, which they argue serves a greater "public purpose."


Anyone remember Hillary, standing with her fellow communists and declaring "We're going to take things away from you for the greater good!"? Well, when you have no problem wiping your ass on the Constitution, much like Hillary and the rest of the Democrats, it doesn't take much of a strech of the imagination to figure out that in a communist's mind, the "greater good" trumps just about everything, including your property rights.

Think I'm kidding? They've already done what they can to remove the 2nd Amendment, and much of the 1st.

-I cannot carry a gun in the Democrat strongholds of California or Massachusetts.
-Prayer in schools is discouraged and even prohibited in many areas, even if the person praying doesn't try to lead others in prayer.
-The word "God" and the Ten Commandments are being obliterated from any kind of public setting. The City of Los Angeles even changed the city's seal to remove a cross from it! Perhaps someone needs to remind Los Angeles that it's actual name is "La Ciudad de la Riena de Los Angeles", which translates to "The City of the Queen of the Angels", which definately has religious connotations. Might I suggest a new name: The Stinky Shithole in Southern California. SSSC.
-"Hate Speech" legislation. 'Nuff said. And note who determines what hate speech is! Certainly not the average Joe on the street, but the Democrats who created this abortion of legislation.

That's just a few examples for ya. I'm sure you can come up with quite a few more.
