Yesterday marked a momentous day in US history as the 28th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America was ratified by President Joe Biden
The new 28th amendment declares;


Long proposed and beleaguered, the 28th amendment was suddenly conjured into being in the past 24 hours by a proclamation of Joe Biden.
Immediately following the president's unilateral announcement that the 28th amendment exists and has been ratified and is law of the land, democrats around the country lined up to follow suit in their recognition of this newly birthed constitutional amendment via executive edict. Kamala Harris, who has also declared herself the president-elect and is due to be inaugurated in a few days, similarly declared the 28th amendment to be law of the land. Making it formal, via tweet. Perhaps the archivist will record that tweet into the constitution too.


Can we talk about how the post war carpetbaggers just wrote over the 13th amendment?

No no no no.
The constitution can be altered. That’s why amendments exist. That’s why they’re called amendments.
I’m talking about the idea that some legs of the constitution are off limits in the view of certain populaces, and vice versa.
The idea that the constitution is this “über alles” document is just insane. Especially if you’re cherry picking which portions of it are gospel.


The 2nd Amendment is not "off limits" because of some random magic. The 2nd Amendment is off limits because the only reason to remove the people's methods of self-preservation is if you intend to harm the people.

We were founded in a fight against tyranny. Any State Legislatures that went about truly attempting to disarm their constituencies wouldn't be long for their jobs, and possibly wouldn't be long for this world. :)
