ORIGINAL: LadyDemura Ban guns, ban region, ban states rights! The Constitution was a more perfect document without this so called Bill of Rights. A bunch of stupid southerners insisted on it back then, and look what we have now...a bunch of stupid southerners defending it... States rights were inherent in the Constitution before the Bill of Rights. You are saying that the goverment should be allowed to force people to testify against themselves, and since the prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment any means they wanted to use. Some states rights were, but many are largely because of the 10th amendment. Why is it we must have 4 levels of government, federal, state, county, and city, with 4 sets of taxes, of course. Without it, aside from the other powers the states have, congress could basically get rid of state, county, and city taxes and regulations... States rights also predate the Constittution, Have you heard of the Articles of Confederation?
