............... "Always said by those who wish to have the power to define 'the greater good'." It makes me want to punch them in the face. Repeatedly. View Quote Words are such squishy things. That's why anyone who has experience with legislation must lose all confidence in language. Weapons are another matter. You can question the meaning of words. When a firearm speaks the meaning is unmistakable. |

Sounds good. Who needs rule of law? Who needs freedom? Fuck it.

Until they are not in the great good category then it will be "But that's not Constitutional!"

Usually said by those who want to define the greater good according to their own self interests. Fuck them and anyone who wants to set the US Constitution aside.

Should be the opposite. The Constitution trumps greater good. Never seems to happen anymore, however.
|

Constitution "Says what it says and doesn't say what it doesn't"
Simple , No? |

If someone on my FB feed posted:
"What's constitutional must sometimes take a back seat to the greater good" View Quote My reply would be: "You are why I own guns. Lots of them." |
|
Quoted: Read that on FB today. What's your opinion of it? For, against? View Quote Post this in response: "I agree - as long as I am the one who gets to decide what is for the greater good, and not you." |
|
The constitution is driving this bitch. If it gets in the back seat, we gonna crash.
|
|
They are talking about ending abortion, right? For the greater good.
|
|
Everybody in a low, monotone voice: "The greater good".
Repeat. Damn, talk about timing! |
|
How are we going to take care of the "greater good" without looking after the "individual good"?
|
|
Laws are old school. We need rules and decisions based on feelings.

One of the parties involved is a city council person. Post the name of the person - they are a public official who needs to be outed. They are also your enemy. They want to control you by any means necessary and have just said so publicly. Post their name! Little shits like this is how big-shits like Obama, Clinton, Warren, Reid, Pelosi get their start. |

What's in the constitution is for the greater good, that's why we put it in there. WTF.
|
|
Wait until they begin saying they need to change the amendments dealing with freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and freedom of religion "for the children", "for the greater good" or some such nonsense, and see how long the libtards keep thinking it is a good idea to mess with the amendments...ALL OF 'EM.

Constitution "Says what it says and doesn't say what it doesn't" Simple , No? View Quote You'd kind of think that if the founding fathers actually wanted "the greater good" to take precedence over the constitution, they would have included a provision in the constitution to allow it... |

Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.
|
|
Honestly, it's such a flabby phrase that at best it's the start of an interesting conversation. At worst, a bumper sticker that is both a knee jerk reaction itself and causes knee jerk reactions.
|

funny thing is, what's better for the masses, never goes against the Constitution.
so, specious argument for 500 Alex. |

Quoted: One thing abortion does, is limit the amount of FSA troops. For that reason alone I support abortion. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: They are talking about ending abortion, right? For the greater good. One thing abortion does, is limit the amount of FSA troops.

Stating that you support abortion as a women's right to choose because that reduces the population of blacks and hispanics being born in the country makes Liberals' heads explode. |

Those are like Hillary Clinton words from the 90's aren't they?
|

Our economy is twice that of our nearest competitor. The biggest concern of our poor is cell signal.
The Constitution IS the greater good. Anyone looking to weaken it is an enemy. |

Quoted: Read that on FB today. What's your opinion of it? For, against? View Quote I'm guessing their opinion would change if they didn't agree with who was deciding that "greater good".
|
|
Ummm no. What "for the greater good" always should take a backseat to the Constitution. Period.
But then, I'm a bitter clinger. |

I'm not just talking about blacks and hispanics. There's plenty of white folks in the FSA, my cousin being one them. She had 2 or 3 abortions, but now has 2 kids that she can't afford. And my mother and her parents are constantly throwing money at her to keep those kids fed and dressed. |
