Then the US Constitution clearly has zero meaning at all right now and for many people never did

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago

Sure. We’re all pissed.

Have you met the supreme court?

It's only true if it's enforced, isn't it?

[–] Doc_Crankenstein@slrpnk.net 3 points 15 hours ago

True of all forms of power — authority is only as legitimate as its ability to enforce itself.

Which is why my fellow Democrats screwed us by being anti second amendment.

Turns out when it’s mostly only fascists who are armed, there’s not much you can do. Numbers really matter, and it’s too late.

Yuuuuuuup.

There are left 2a groups out there y'all, it's not too late to learn.

These are not even suggestions, but a facade of morality to adopt when convenient by the rulers. 'Forked tongues' and all of that, but I guess that what the Lakota warrior knew hundreds of years ago is something some of you have to learn again today.

Well, it’s the actual foundation of the law of the land, so. A little more than suggestions.

what use is "the law" when the ones who are supposed to enforce it are the ones who are breaking it?

Like, defend themselves in courts or like thru a dance-off?

So....get them off American soil, and fair game from there?

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If they were "got" on American soil, they have to have due process.

[–] Jarix@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

They are supposed to have due process but clearly they don't have to have it since there's a lot of people locked up in detention centres or el Salvadoran mega prisons that wouldn't have been there is that was at all what is happening in reality.

Keep clinging to this illusion that words on paper mean anything at all to these conservative religious fascists if you need to, I'm not in America and I would probably need a healthy amount of copium if I was as well

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 1 points 52 minutes ago

I'm not in America

Okay, well thanks anyway.
