In The Eyes Of Government We Are

[t]he Enshrinement Of Constitutional Rights Necessarily Takes Certain Policy Choices Off The Table.... Undoubtedly Some Think That The Second Amendment Is Outmoded In A Society Where Our Standing Army Is The Pride Of Our Nation, Where Well-trained Police Forces Provide Personal Security, And Where Gun Violence Is A Serious Problem. That Is Perhaps Debatable, But What Is Not Debatable Is That It Is Not The Role Of This Court To Pronounce The Second Amendment Extinct.

We Do Him [god] Honor In Our Pledge Of Allegiance, In All Our Public Ceremonies. There's Nothing Wrong With That. It Is In The Best Of American Traditions, And Don't Let Anybody Tell You Otherwise. I Think We Have To Fight That Tendency Of The Secularists To Impose It On All Of Us Through The Constitution.

More Importantly, The Court Forgets That Ours Is A Government Of Laws And Not Of Men. That Means We Are Governed By The Terms Of Our Laws, Not By The Unenacted Will Of Our Lawmakers. 'if Congress Enacted Into Law Something Different From What It Intended, Then It Should Amend The Statute To Conform To Its Intent.' In The Meantime, This Court 'has No Roving License ... To Disregard Clear Language Simply On The View That ... Congress 'must Have Intended' Something Broader.

The Wise Do Not Investigate Such Silliness.

The Purpose Of The Federalist Society Was To Bring Together Young People Who Had This Skepticism About What They Were Being Taught And To Let Them Know That There Were Others Who Shared This Skepticism.
