But if course, YOU do, right? The guy who says the federal Bill of Rights does things that no SCOTUS judge ever supported until the progressive era, which is just a little late to be considered “original”. But good luck with that.

Alex, Dwayne is correct about the Bill of Rights. It is only applied to the federal government. The idea that the BoR was incorporated is a Progressive myth.

Unless you or anyone else here can point to which piece of Progressive philosophy this point of view correlates to, then please stop using the word Progressive, because you don't understand what it means.

Amendment 10 The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. It's not "progressive" to amend the Constitution.pic.twitter.com/2GZGdHd4nr

Seel, your claim of the 14A isn’t consistent with the arguments made by those who ratified the 14A. Most of the 14A doesn’t even apply today since no one is alive from the CW.

This fails to prove how the 14A doesn't protect my Right to Liberty to own a gun. You giving subjective opinions opposite to what is factually law. Facts don't care about your feelings!

Under McDonald, the meaning of your right to own a gun depends on what the Supreme Court says it means. Again: either the Federal Government (through the courts) or the state governments (through legislatures) must make these policies. The 2A's purpose is to reserve it to states.

You forgot the state supreme courts, Kevin. The legislatures' roles are mirrored in the legislative branch, not SCOTUS. The Amendments are incorporated via state ratification by design, not accident.

You seem to have this idea that when the states ratify an amendment that limits power on the federal government that it somehow applies the same power limitation on themselves through the federal government. Seriously, that is just stupid.

That's a strawman, lefty, the Bill of Rights is incumbent on states as well as federal gov't, because they lay out the rights of citizens, which should be safe against all gov't. That was the original intent, and to pretend state gov't can take those rights away is progressive.

Utter freaking nonsense. Point to a single debate in the States or in the first Congress that supports that fiction.

This is the last time I am going to say this. NOT true according to those who authored and advocated for the 14th Amendment as FAMED Constitutional Scholar Raoul Berger has pointed out.
