Yes, we have all seen the progress brought about by conservative principles...namely most of them being found unconstitutional in courts nationwide

The Safe Act, passed in the dead of night, behind closed doors is a good example. Right?  Oh.... wait .....that was who?

I think you're a bit confused Grampy, the Safe Act has been upheld as being constitutional 

[grampy]

Very true. It was found to be constitutional by the very same ones who passed the law .

The SAFE Act has not been adjudicated by the Supreme Court of the US yet, so it's constitutionality has not been judged yet.  

The lower courts have been at odds to date in their decisions on state laws similar to the SAFE Act and only a ruling by the SCOTUS will resolve the issue.  

That being said, the courts have become quite political and activist in recent years, often violating the Constitution in their opinions.  How do you find a "right" to gay marriage in the 14th Amendment but not find arms rights in the 2nd?  The abortion "right" was literally created by the court using the "privacy clause" of the 14th Amendment and egregiously extending it to infanticide if done inside the womb.

Further proof of the court's corruption is clear when the appointment of Supreme Court Justices is based on their political beliefs, rather than their legal beliefs.  Plus, elected official's selection of political peers to fill Justice positions, while attacking sitting Justices who oppose their political beliefs, further proves the Constitution is NOT being adhered to in many cases.

Both political parties have been equally guilty of violating their oaths, and the constitution.  But in the 2nd Amendment case, Democrats have been the major offenders.

Scalia's death was quite a coincidence considering the agenda the court has to handle in the near future.  Unless Hillary is prevented from becoming President, the Constitution will be eviscerated and inalienable rights will all be regulated and infringed into obscurity, achieving the long desired leftist goal of unlimited government power.  

This will be the defining election for the future of America.  We will either be able to stand as free people, or live on our knees as subjects for all time.

Better practice kneeling cause the odds favor Hilary come November

[Rattler]

LOL!  There you have it folks, the moron admits that's what Hillary wants.

He forgets some people are doing lots of practicing, but they're standing up in a pile of warm brass.

Better practice running, because the supporters of tyranny will not fare well after a Hillary election either.
