Democrats do not see the Constitution as a limit on their actions. In fact, Democrats don’t see any rules or laws as limits on what they think they can do. They imagine that they can do anything they want no matter what the law says. Democrats are essentially lawless creatures.
Further proof of this came this week in the Pittsburgh City Council during the debate on an unconstitutional gun bill the city was trying to institute. After the lopsided vote was over — with the anti-constitution side winning — Councilman Tonya Payne told everyone that would listen that she didn’t care about the U.S. Constitution.
“Who really cares about it being unconstitutional? This is what’s right to do, and if this means that we have to go out and have a court battle, then that’s fine.”
What more can be said? Democrats hate the Constitution, hate the law, and want to rule their constituents by fiat. This is a universal idea in Democrat circles across the country.

Just your typical bitter gun- and God-clinger
Even the Left admits we’re Right
There's so much I can say to this, but.........
Kenny Solomon (Diary) Monday, November 24th at 11:51PM EST (link)I’ll just simplify it all by saying, “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed”.
In other words dear Pittsburgh City Council, America’s answer is NO YOU CAN’T and NO YOU DON’T !
That is a stunning statement

The deeper meaning being they are going to determine what’s right, constitutional or not. That has so many ugly implications. I think I’ll send your post around the internet if that’s OK to my democrat cousins, particularly the gun owning ones.
From the movie “Hard Times”
Jill Ireland: “What does it feel like to knock somebody down?”
Charles Bronson: “It makes me feel a hell of a lot better than it does him.”
Yes!
Warner Todd Huston (Diary) Tuesday, November 25th at 7:20AM EST (link)Yes, exactly it. The Constitution is meaningless because “good intentions” matter more.
And we KNOW what road is paved with “good intentions,” don’t we??
