The Constitution: Love it or leave it!

Found this very enlightening;

“Constitutional scholar Jeff Wright, in his book The Citizen’s Last Stand, explains how the power of the sovereign citizen rightly flows upward:

The People are endowed with rights regardless of origin;

The People created the entity of the State;

The separate States then created a Federal government … to serve as an agent of the States, in a subservient role, to accomplish a small number of specifically enumerated tasks known as “delegated powers”;

Each state then created counties or parishes as political subdivisions which were chartered to allow for the election of officials … including the office of County Sheriff….

Thus authority flows upwards from the Sovereign Citizens through the Counties to the States to the Federal Government. It does not flow downwards to the citizens. [Emphasis in original.]

In all cases, the States and the Federal Government are ultimately subservient to the People.”

My response to all those who think they can change or go against their co called “Living constitution” is that the tenants of The Constitution are an inalienable right of every citizen subject to change only as a result of a Constitutional Convention.

Any one disagreeing with the freedoms and barriers of this document has two choices. Get a Convention convened, or move to a country that has a system of government more to their liking.

    Yes. The Constitution is there for times when you don't love it, when you feel willing to give up freedoms to stop drugs, school shootings, violent extremists, etc. It means nothing if we only apply it to actions/policies we'd take anyway.
