@TexChik just seems strange to have so much loyalty to something that has changed that many times
TexChik · F
@Guitarman123 changed via constitutional rules regarding amendments, designed so that it could change with the times, like women and African Americans getting the right to vote, for example

@TexChik which showcases it had flaws and shouldn't have as much blind loyalty as it seems to do
TexChik · F
@Guitarman123 those needs didn’t exist or were ever fathomed at the time the constitution was written .

@TexChik true and shouldn't be treated almost like the gospel
TexChik · F
@Guitarman123 it is the law of the land

@TexChik yes but not gospel to live and die by

@Guitarman123 That is your opinion
Guitarman123 · 31-35, M
@TexChik you wanna treat laws as gospel to base your whole life on is up to you
TexChik · F
@Guitarman123 Upholding and defending the law , and knowing it is my life. The best thing about America (if you live here) is the road leaving is just as wide as the one that brought you here.

@TexChik I work for a living and advocate for workers rights to improve
TexChik · F
@Guitarman123 I work for a living too and the constitution and state law protect my rights
Guitarman123 · 31-35, M
@TexChik yet does nothing to protect the rights of those who are homeless and have medical debts
Guitarman123 · 31-35, M
@TexChik and badly mistreated black people in particular
Carissimi · 70-79, F
It does make you a communist, and anyone with half a brain knows the workers NEVER own the means of production. It always end up in the hands of the elite leaders. You are a fool if you believe this baloney. @Guitarman123

@Guitarman123 No body was promised a free ride, being homeless is a disaster of the highest order , but one usually manifested by one's self. And medical debt? We all have bills. I hear communist countries calling your name. And black people being mistreated? That's usually by libs.

@Carissimi yet they exist in forms of co operative businesses
Guitarman123 · 31-35, M
@TexChik seriously? So everyone who is homeless has themselves to blame? Not at all the systems fault? Don't be ridiculous. Haha that just shows you don't even know what libs are

@Guitarman123 There are poor and homeless people of all races. There always has been. Maybe if the governments took care of their own citizen’s needs, instead of opening the borders to allow migrants to come and claim free benefits and healthcare, citizens of western countries would be in better shape.
