Re: TownHall.com –
3/10/2008 – “Secession? Yes. From Those Who Would Destroy America” – Douglas
MacKinnon
I believe that no agreement requested by any territory and
agreed to by Congress while granting that territory statehood may override the
Constitution. If, as MacKinnon claims, Montana believes it got assurances from
the Feds that as a condition of its statehood it got the right to interpret the
meaning of the 2nd Amendment in place of the Supreme Court, then I
say Montana has a very confused appreciation of the process of granting
statehood and the legal powers of Federal Government under the Constitution.
I believe that MacKinnon’s lack of respect of everyone who
disagrees with him says a lot more about MacKinnon than it says about those who
disagree with him.
I believe that if MacKennon wants to secede from the union,
he should feel free to do so. Just have him leave Montana behind for those of
us who love and respect our Constitution.
