I was watching a recorded interview of a guy talking in the lobby of the Trump International Hotel In Washington DC on Jan 5th. He was stating that tomorrow, Jan 6th there was going to be fighting for the Constitution. Now, I don’t want to get into all the garbage about it being preplanned because that may be for another blog. What I want to discuss is where in the hell is this insurrection stuff in the Constitution? I have looked and I don’t see it. I am not a Constitutional lawyer like Ted Cruz but I looked anyway. That Ted Cruz bit is sarcasm by the way.
I know there are people who think the Second Amendment was put there for the people to rebel against the government. I believe such great Constitutional defenders like Rand Paul and Matt Geatz have stated that much. More sarcasm. I don’t see where that wording is. Now it does talk about the Security of a free State. It does not talk about the rebellion anywhere. People will say that you have to read between the lines. I am sorry; the Second Amendment is just one line. No lines to read between. Being just one sentence I have to believe the writers knew what they were writing about. It was put there for defense and it says so. Nowhere does in say anything about a group of people rebelling against the government. It was put there for the security of that government. It was put there to protect us from the very insurrectionists that wanted to use it to destroy our democracy.
What would they have done if they were successful? What would they have done is they succeeded to put Trump up on his throne? I would think that the Supreme court would have something to say about that because that is not in the Constitution. There is no way that it says that a person can be reinstated to the Presidency or any other office. For that to happen, the whole Constitution would have to be thrown out the window along with the Supreme Court. At that point the United States that we knew ceases to exists. The great experiment is over. Is that what the money people want? I know that this is what Putin wants. Is this what the majority of Americans want?
As I have stated many times the freedom that our forefathers fought for was the opportunity to form their own representative government. They fought for the ability to write that Constitution that so many today would just as soon throw out the window. They claim to be patriots but it was patriots that wrote that document and I am pretty sure they would not be in favor of you just destroying their vision. I know I wouldn’t be if I was one of them. They wrote it in a way so it could keep on evolving with the times. I think that when they wrote they knew that someday slavery would be no more and the country would have to evolve with the times. I really think that those guys were smart and had a real vision of the future for their new country.
Now there are ways to change the Constitution but armed insurrection is not one of them, that is the way to destroy it. The way is called Amendments to the Constitution. That is the only way that I can see that it can be changed short of a Constitutional Convention and I think that two thirds of the states would have to request it. I could be wrong. You know I am not a constitutional expert like Josh Hawley. More sarcasm.
An armed insurrection is how our Constitution and our Democracy
dies, not how it is preserved. That is
not what our forefathers had in mind. What they had in mind is a government of
the people, by the people, for the people. This is not just white people or
brown people, All people. The lying and the misinformation have to stop. It
only weakens us and strengthens our enemies. Why would one side or the other
want to weaken America? Who benefits from a weakened America? Those are the
questions that the whole nation should be asking. That is the question that I
am asking you. Who benefits? I think if you really think about it you will
realize that it isn’t you that benefits.
