Clayton Cramer
Clayton Cramer writes something that I will mess up in attempting to quote, but it asks why is what was universally a fundamental right at the time of the adoption of the Constitution (the right to keep and bear the same arms that the military carried) now universally a felony? And why is what was universally a felony at the time of the adoption of the Constitution (sodomy) now universally a fundamental right?
I quote it because it really sums up the state of constitutional law today. Did the Constitution change? Or did an elite class (lawyers) turn the Constitution on its head?
