I support the politicians who know what the "correct' interpretation of the US Constitution is and defend it not the politicians who try to muddy the waters so they can claim the US Constitution is ambiguous in order to redefine the meaning of it to suit their political agenda.
You know,
Oh dear...
I assume you're in favor of striking every federal drug law from the books, right?

It's crazy that the MSM will say the VP is the bad guy because he was offended by the players disrespecting the National Anthem.

Interesting that you choose the flag burning imagery. Would you explain why you equate taking a quiet knee during the national anthem to setting the flag on fire?
I'm not equating it. But, I'm drawing a comparison of how a cause doesn't justify disrespect when your cause isn't related to the entity that you are disrespecting.
The complaints that these players have not only are not caused by what the flag and anthem stand for. But, what the flag and anthem stand for is the actual institution which guarantees them the freedoms they believe they are lacking. To protest the flag and the anthem is incredibly misplaced.
They are doing it for a specific reason. And, it is intentional. They are trying to piss people off.
And, your opinion on whether the players are being disrespectful really is irrelevant. I think it's pretty damn clear that a significant number of people think it is. In fact, it's a clear majority. You don't get to decide what should be offensive or not. Consensus says that it is.

Ari is such a f'ing snowflake.
Only Trumpkins think the walkout wasn't planned.

Point out to me where it is written in the US Constitution that you have the Constitutional right to inject substances into your body that result in you being a dreg on society.

It's irrelevant whether VP Pence's walk out was planned or not.
What's relevant is that he did it and it was the correct thing for a VP to do.
Do you want a VPOTUS or POTUS who has someone insult the flag and the country right in front of their face not to react in some manner to show their displeasure in it occurring?
Oh, that's right.
You probably voted for Obama.

Who said anything about Democrats and Republicans? And if you think the civil rights struggle was over in 1964, you need to read a history book

That would be the Ninth and Tenth Amendments, proved by the Eighteenth and Twenty-first. It required an "activist" court to read the Interstate Commerce Clause so absurdly broad (See: Wickard v. Filburn, et seq) as to allow the federal prohibition of narcotics.
So tell me all about this "correct" interpretation of the Constitution, again?

Careful with that. "Consensus" very likely says that it's offensive to say that homosexuals are living in sin and going to hell

I'm 70 years old and was living in Georgia in 1964 so I don't need a history book to teach me about the civil rights struggle. I was part of it.

Point out where in the 9th and 10th amendment where it specifically says you have the Constitutional right to inject something that makes you a dreg on society.
Also, point out when it was specifically proven by the 18th and 21th Amendments.
You appear to be an attorney or studying Law so point out where the Court absurdly erred in its ruling that Wickard v. Filburn allowed the Federal prohibition of narcotics.

So it's really that you just want to have the Constitutional right to deal and use drugs.

If you don't need a history book, then maybe your memory needs refreshing

The language of the Ninth and Tenth amendments was interpreted since the founding to restrict the federal government from the prohibition of narcotics. That's why the federal prohibition of alcohol required a constitutional amendment. And if you don't see how Wickard, et seq was a massive departure from prior jurisprudence, I'm not sure what to tell you, beyond that if I'm going to give you a full blown constitutional history lesson, I'm going to start billing by the hour

Telling the truth is never a cop out.

Nope. I remember it just like it was yesterday. If you weren't an adult back in 1964 like I was then all you know is what you've read in your history books.

Yep, I'll be sure to take some 70 year old white dude from Georgia's word for it instead

You are the one making the assertion. The burden of proof is on you not me. Point out the specifics that I asked for.

Are you a California attorney who practices Constitutional Law?
If you are then I might consider hiring you because I'm looking for an attorney in California who practices Constitutional Law to represent me in a lawsuit that I am going to file.

You don't have to take my word for anything but since I was involved in the civil rights struggle back in the 60s and you weren't then I know I am more of an expert than you on what was occurring back then.
