Frankie, you seem to have the market cornered on snark. Is it intentional in order to get a thread closed where your arguments are failing, or when you see supporters of the Constitution come out of the woodwork and out number you?
Your snide remarks to Harve Curry are abominable.
Fine. So can someone just explain to me how it is that they "know" that registration is "unconstitutional" in the absence of any case law to that effect?
And who determines who are "supporters of the Constitution"? You? How did you attain the position that allows you to make that classification? I might be outnumbered on this thread, but it is not by people I would classify as "supporters of the Constitution". In my opinion, it is by people who have not the faintest idea of what the Constitution is, how it works, and how the law works.
And I believe I have at least as much standing to make that determination as you do to make yours.
If people simply said that they "think" it is unconstitutional because....., I would have no problem with it, other than it being off topic.
The thread is supposed to be about whether registration is or isn't unconstitutional. I would have expected this would have stimulated a conversation about case law and legal precedents one way or the other.
This is the "Legal" forum after all.
Instead, responses seem to fall into two catagories. A few people offer their opinions on whether or not registration is unconstitutional, some making references to legal precedent and others not. And a lot of people simply assert that, "the 2A says this and means that because I can read English..." or some such nonsense, as if only their interpretation of what it means could possibly be valid.
So I want to know where the people who claim to "know" what the 2A means and that registration is unconstitutional get off thinking that their determination of what the 2A means is the only valid one?
I have asked for this information many times.
No one has attempted to answer it.
So I keep trying different ways of posing the question in the hopes of stimulating some introspection on the part of these purveyors of revealed truth and maybe opening their minds to the fact that there are 300 milloin of us who may ALSO have thoughts on what the 2A means, so why are their (the revealed truthers') thoughts so special?
So far, I have only succeeded in stimulating the posting of more nonsense.
It's probably hopeless.
Maybe I should start a thread titled, "To Heck with the Courts! YOU tell us what the Constitution means!"? I'll bet I get a lot of responses that will fall into a few basic catagories, along with a lot of cheerleaders.
Wouldn't that make for interesting reading.
