That's the most well organized argument on the subject I've ever seen.
Would we tolerate such a sweeping regulation of, say, the Thirteenth Amendment?
"Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime where of the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."
What if a member of Congress -- say, a Republican from a red state in the south -- were to introduce a bill that permits enslaving black women? Would we consider that reasonable? It's not like the law would enslave all people, or even all black people. Just the women. There's no mention of enslaving women in the Thirteenth Amendment. Clearly, when Lincoln wanted to free the slaves, he didn't intend to free all the slaves. And we restrict all the other Amendments, so obviously the Thirteenth Amendment is not supposed to be absolute. What's the big deal?
The left has never been for the constitution and that is why the arguments never work.
Why, are they trying to repeal a part of the Constitution?
The left is about control of your life, that is what socialist do. They can not achieve total control when people are armed for their own defense. Look at most big cities and how the socialist have taken peoples right to own guns and ruined life in the big cities.
