[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1315100, member: 14668"] So are you saying that you advocate abolishing the Constitution and reverting back to the Articles of Confederation as the core legal framework that defines our rights as citizens? Do you believe that "local supremacy" should allow a majority vote of white citizens to make slavery legal again, as it was during the Articles of Confederation? You are certainly entitled to your opinion but I personally am grateful for the existence of a Constitution that specifically enumerates my God given rights rather than allowing them to be subject to the whims of "local supremacy" which is another way of describing the Tyranny of the Majority. There is an important distinction between "democracy" and "liberty" that you should keep in mind. "Democracy" is four wolves and a lamb voting on what will be served for dinner. "Liberty" is a heavily armed lamb disputing the results of the election. [/QUOTE]
