Those *dangerous* Korean War relics
Steven P. McNicoll wrote: "Gary Drescher" wrote in message ... To be more pedant-resistant, I would have to have said "The US erected the legal framework that made such 'ownership' possible in the US". That's not correct. The legal framework that made such 'ownership' possible in the US was erected prior to the establishment of the US. Depends on what you mean by 'legal framework'. The founding fathers chose what to include in the legal framework of their new country. They CHOSE to include slavery, and not without considerable controversy. -- FF |

Those *dangerous* Korean War relics
wrote in message oups.com... Your objection, that the 16th Amendment was not part of the Bill of Rights, does not address the issue of whether or not its adoption was as proper as the adoption of the Bill of Rights. E.g. your objection was as irrelevant as if you had objected that the 16th amendment was not part of the Magna Carta. The question was, "In what way was the Bill of Rights not properly ratified?" Your response, a dissertation on the Sixteenth Amendment, did not answer the question but did suggest you believed the Sixteenth Amendment was part of the Bill of Rights. Of course, this was obvious all along. What is obvious is you don't know what you're talking about. |

My dissertaion on the irregularities involved in the passage of the Bill of RIghts addressed the irregularities in the passage of the Bill of rights. Your response, a statement that the Sixteenth Amendment was not a part of the Bill of Rights , suggested that you are an idiot. -- FF |
