That's the wonderful thing about a Constitutional Right, as opposed to statute or precedent. Statute and Precedent can be changed with relative ease. Constitutional Rights cannot. The difficulty of Amending the Constitution exists purely and specifically so that you can NOT vote away another person's Rights.

And this is made extremely clear with the overturning of Roe. If you believe there should be a Right, enshrine it in your State's Constitution, or go above and beyond and have it enshrined in the Federal Constitution. Then it will take an act of a supermajority in both the house and the senate (not one or the other), as well as an act of at least 38 State Congresses to modify or remove that right. The entire point is, if it's a Right, you should not be able to vote it away. Because who the fuck are you?


Well if it was changed it would not be just me now would it?

Hence why I stated, and I quote, "If you wish to change the Constitution, why not get together with those who agree with you and change it?"

This was not a pithy remark. If you believe you have the support of the overwhelming majority, go do it. Get off the internet, contact your local representative, related interest groups, etc. and be the difference you wish to make.

As it stands right now, you're just some random on the internet who believes his desires outweigh the Rights of his neighbor.

If this were correct, HR departments probably wouldn't exist. As a student, as an employee, as a manager, as a boss, this is not a limited issue. It's virtually universal. And it's not a "man" problem. Female employees who spend half their shift flirting with coworkers and customers are one of the largest single sources of lost productivity, and dress codes are a very simple way to resolve half the issue. Turns out, when everyone looks pretty much like everyone else, the task at hand becomes the focus, as opposed to the interpersonal shit that should be handled "on your own time".


But people would still be able to see their coworkers' faces though, and they would still be tempted to flirt with them.

Oh, sick burn dude! Several issues though. First and foremost, college trig and what you learn in high school "trig" aka Algebra II are vastly different. Second, I started college at 16. I tested in to College Trig, so it's where I started. How were you doing at 16?


So you skipped grades in school. Honestly I am not surprised.

Sad that you have so little justification for anything relating to dress codes that you resort to the weakest insults. Keep at it. Spend more time on discord with Thor. Soon enough you'll be up to "poopy head" levels of insults, I imagine. :rolleyes:


Holy shit Bobb, you are dominant.

Did we want the never-ending war or the removal of troops.
which one?
Biden did shit job of removing, but for me at least its finally over. Nothing done in 20 years is enough

Idk... Leaving eventually is good.. leaving in that way VERY bad haha

He is weak and other leaders perceive him as weak

Probably a big reason for Putin's invasion of Ukraine

You can't read.

Bobb did not say you wanting to amend the Constitution makes you a random. He said that you want to amend the Constitution, and you also happen to be a random, at the same time.
