A constitutional convention. Worst idea ever. If one is ever called, it's a certainty the U.S. govt will carry our another 9/11. And a new and improved constitution will be all printed up and ready to go. It will turn our "rights" into "privileges."

As far as the rights mentioned in the constitution, they are inalienable. The govt uses lots of tricks to get you to sign away your rights, but even YOU don't have the authority to sign them away. They are inalienable. So don't let anyone tell you that you've signed away a right.

And now comes the biggest threat ever to the constitution. For the past 8 years the Democrats have introduced "hate crime legislation" in congress, but the Republican majority always shot it down. But now the Dems are in control, and they'll certainly try again. Probably this week. Canada and Europe already have these insane laws, but this is America with a Bill of Rights, the first of which is freedom of expression.

Have your written to your representative lately? If not, write about this. When this abomination is assigned a bill #, everyone needs to speak against it.
