Waxing poetical are we, Bart? Just a pity you could not make a little sense and do a little thinking before you put it down.
If you did know me, you would take that back. Fighting for Rights is what I have spent decades doing. I was one of the founders of an organisation that, as one of its side issues, forced Trudeau to amend his Bill C60 and take a couple of objectionable points from the Charter. I chaired the policy and communications committees of that Movement which was founded on the inspiration of an article I wrote for the Montreal Star
But that does not matter. What you say is blowing in the wind and why should I believe your resume when you call me a liar. I suspect that you are merely bragging.
But, to just cut through your derivative verbiage, Rights do not trump law. Rights can not exist without law. It is law that secures Rights and the enforcement of that law.
That finding of the legal team I am aware of. Emasculated! What a silly comment. I have also been aware of the illegality of the Declaration for as long as I can remember. I have been aware that it was treason. And I could not care less.
If you want the truth of what Adams and others of that breed did fight and die for it was for self aggrandisement. There was only one "man of the people" at the deliberations that brought about your Constitution - Stevens was his name if I recall correctly.. It was a conference to enshrine the privilege and prosperity of your landowners and merchants.
I could be reminded of many things about those times. They do not include the propaganda of Paine and Adams and their silver tongued deception of the ordinary people.
If you do not consider "Due Process" a Right, then why is it based on an interpretation of your Bill of Rights? And what are civil liberties but Rights?
I could go on but I do not feel the necessity to respond to your feeble attempts to denigrate me personally and all who actually believe in the Rule of Law opposed to your Anarchist views.
