OK back to what I "actually" said, I can answer that because I know what
the truth is.

Now what is wrong with what I said?

["It was de facto when the SCOTUS made it legal to kill the fetus. Just
as a slave could be beaten or "tortured" because they were NOT human
life and they were property."]






Actually I was using your interpretation which is the SCOTUS
interpretation. You support SCOTUS in their abortion interpretation of
"Privacy" they say that a woman's RIGHT to privacy means they can kill
the baby in the uterus, you may call it abortion but it does kill the
human life(person) in the uterus.

If true and a woman has privacy and that covers the private killing of
the human life in the uterus, then as with privacy comes ownership,
because to get privacy of something you don't own... is too
ridiculous for even you to interject into this conversation. That is
tantamount to telling the police that the STOLEN car you are in can't be
searched because of your right to privacy.

So a woman needs privacy over her body which includes the woman's uterus
and all the contents of that uterus. So that she can privately do what
ever it is that she is doing to what "she" owns. If she owns it, it is
her property, and I agree she should have a RIGHT to PRIVACY.

But if it's NOT her property, I can think of only two other choices,
1) it is someone else's property like the car...
2) it is a human life that everyone is banned from owning.

That makes the woman the owner of a human life, she can abuse it and or
abandon it or kill it as she sees fit within any regulations that
pertain to her ownership. It's like owning a mule.


["Amendment IX
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be
construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."]

Killing a human by disparaging the RIGHTS of a human life so that a
woman can have an abortion violates amendment 9.


"MY" *comprehension* of reading the constitution is that the 13th
amendment bans any Slavery, also known as banning any human life from
being considered property.

SO I say the SCOTUS Privacy issue is violating the 13th amendment.

the Supreme Court Of The United States(SCOTUS) decision on Roe v Wade
was unconstitutional.

Because they have made the life in the uterus property of the woman, and
making a human life property is slavery.

You are free to be pro SLAVERY, that's OK and I won't call you names,
but just recognize the fact that you are supporting slavery and admit
it. Abortion is NOT a privacy issue, but as the courts see fit to put
up that facade and say it is, they leave themselves open to be
supporting slavery once again as they did in Dredd Scott. The problem
is that the 13th amendment no longer allows slavery in the USA.


["AMENDMENT XIII
Passed by Congress January 31, 1865. Ratified December 6, 1865. Note: A
portion of Article IV, section 2, of the Constitution was superseded by
the 13th amendment.
Section 1.

*Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude*, except as a punishment for
crime *whereof the party shall have been duly convicted*, shall exist
within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
Section 2.

Congress *shall have power to enforce* this article by appropriate
legislation."]

Obviously the congress can ban killing a human life in teh uterus and
stop this form of human life ownership and slavery.

AMENDMENT XIV
["nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property,
without due process of law; "]

*The PARADOX is that if the human life in the uterus is NOT* a *person*,
*it is then PROPERTY and to make a human life property* is
*unconstitutional as per the 13th amendment*.

Or else a person in a vegetative (brain dead state becomes property and
a slave to their owner) Vegetative slavery would then be
constitutional in the States due to Amendment 10. You could buy and
sell vegetative NON persons or actually *persons* as sex slaves in
States that don't make it "expressly" illegal.

This one SCOTUS decision to make constitutional the killing of a human
life in the uterus has created so many problems that it shouldn't have,
and it did create the constitutional problems because it was a violation
of the constitution.

BUYING AND SELLING A HUMAN LIFE IS SLAVERY because it makes them
property, as does offering privacy to the OWNER of the human life over
that human life.....

By reading your description of the abortion laws....
I might think that a *man's part* inserted into a Vagina becomes the
private property of the woman since it is inside her bodies reproductive
system. Can a woman kill that part also? Would it also be privacy since
it is inside her body?

That is your limitation.

Nothing says that "human life" as YOU define it is something "everyone
is banned from owning".

In particular, IVF embryos are indeed owned by the couple, but you
would call them "human life". A fetus isn't necessarily "owned" by
anyone

>That makes the woman the owner of a human life,

only as you define it,

>["Amendment IX

>construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."]

Embryos and fetuses are not "people".

>Killing a human by disparaging the RIGHTS of a human life so that a
>woman can have an abortion violates amendment 9.

False.

And in particular, at the time of the founding abortion wasn't
illegal, and wasn't even frowned upon prior to "quickening".

>"MY" *comprehension* of reading the constitution

matters to no one but you.

>is that the 13th amendment bans any Slavery,

Actually not.

<Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
<
<Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

So slavery is technically constitutional as punishment for a crime.
But only if Congress says so. And slavery is what CONGRESS defines it
to mean, not what you define it to mean. And if Congress doesn't
define it, it is up to the courts.

>also known as banning any human life from being considered property.

That is one interpretation, but not the only one, and certainly not
the one used in our legal system.

At the time it was passed, some people used the phrase "wage slavery"
to refer to some capitalist forms of hired labor.

>SO I say the SCOTUS Privacy issue is violating the 13th amendment.

You aren't Congress or the courts, so what you says matters not in the
least to anyone else.

>the Supreme Court Of The United States(SCOTUS) decision on Roe v Wade
>was unconstitutional.

By definition it was Constitutional because they had the judicial
power to make the decision.

>Because they have made the life in the uterus property of the woman, and
>making a human life property is slavery.

Only to you.

>

Not everything that is not human life is necessarily property and vice
versa.

>Or else a person in a vegetative (brain dead state becomes property and
>a slave to their owner)

Under a vegetative state, they become neither. Upon becoming brain
dead, it depends on what the state has chosen as the definition of
death - usually brain dead means "dead" and a dead person is no longer
a "person", but it isn't clear that anyone in particular owns the
corpse. (Under common law, a corpse is neither property nor a
person).

Not relevant, even if true. No one is being bought or sold.

You might think so, nonsensically. But that is because you apparently
are erroneously thinking that abortion is based on property rights
over a fetus.

>Can a woman kill that part also?

She can certainly require that part to be removed from her body,
though that is not likely to cause death. But in self defense against
rape, probably she could kill the part, and she can probably kill the
owner of that part as well.

I believe that the 13th amendment says you can't OWN another living
human being....

["Section 1.
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for
crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist
within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."]




So ownership of another human life;

*Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude... shall exist within*
*the United States*

You can't buy and own another human life.

But if you are personally pro Slavery then stand up and tell us about it.

Human life is a debatable definition according to you? And what makes
you believe that you are enlightened and smart and elite enough to tell
me when I am alive? You seem to presume that you are far smarter than
any other human life and that makes you superior and the obvious person
to decide who and when a live human exists? You presume to dictate to
nature rather the the other way around?


Thanks for being so OMNIPOTENT and telling myself and the rest of us
that you're so much more evolved that you are the last word on when and
who a human life is worth saving.


You see... there is no insult that could possibly penetrate your
stupidity. You have just proved it.

And you supported Slavery....


Are you also a member of the KKK? We see that you love slavery and
Democrat-Liberals love the KKK like Robert Byrd did... and you are all
RACISTS because you base every decision you make on RACE. Why then do
you try to hide from your true beliefs?

No mention of "ownership" in there, nor of "living human being". The
terms are "slavery" and "involuntary servitude", and they mean, as
always, what the courts determine them to mean, possibly colored by a
statement from Congress as to their meaning.

>So ownership of another human life;

But in fact a human embryo can be bought and sold under certain
limited conditions:
<http://reason.com/archives/2006/08/18/embryos-for-sale

So obviously, the "slavery" clause doesn't apply to such an embryo.

On the other hand, a pregnant woman is clearly a human, and you
apparently would allow the fetus to enslave the woman.

>But if you are personally pro Slavery then stand up and tell us about it.

Every word in every language is debatable as to its definition. That
is part of the nature of language.

I'm not.

The courts define what constitutes being "alive" as a matter of law.

>You seem to presume that you are far smarter than

It is not my decision.

Nature has nothing to say about the matter, not being able to talk.

Not me. The courts, with respect to decisions of law, have that

Whereas I see the stupidity as being entirely in your camp, since you

Now you're being more than your normal stupid. Do you see
marketing anywhere in that definition? Slavery needn't involve
buying or selling only of being "bound in servitude as the property
of a slaveholder or household."

If you want to arge based upon this definition you would argue
that the servitude to which a pregnant woman should be bound
is not based upon her being property of a slaveholder or household.
The arguement would be she is bound in servitude to the fetus
by some other mystical cause or will. When a woman wants
a baby the binding is one of choice and aspirations for the future
being's life. Anyone who doesn't extend an arbitraty forced binding
between all people at all stages of their lives has a heavy load to
lift.

Isn't that ridiculous..... that would mean that NOTHING ever written
means anything at all, because it could mean opposite what was being
said and anything in between. That means there is nothing that can be
quoted meaning anything and the Supreme court that "interprets" the
constitution are also according to you, using debatable words and again
I can interpret what the court has interpreted from the constitution.

The way I see it the courts don't really mean what you say they mean.

Actually the live human in the uterus is being called property by the
Supreme Court and they are violating the 13th amendment when they allow
a woman to say they own the live human in their uterus. It is slavery
to allow a woman to treat that live human as less than a live human with
unalienable RIGHTS.

The Supreme court has already said a woman can be forced to host the
live human in the uterus for the last 2 months so why are the first
seven months an invasion of privacy.

What you mean to say "I'll interpret your words" is that you and the
courts like slavery and are supporting it despite that it is banned in
the United States.

You and the courts say it is illegal to buy/sell black people and an
embryo has no skin color so it can be a slave.... which means that you
are discriminating against live humans that have no skin color.


It's simple to interpret the words that you and the courts have used.


What that really means is that the courts are actually saying to us all
that they have no jurisdiction to decide if or when any person has
unalienable RIGHTS because all live humans have unalienable RIGHTS.

The issue is one of the fetus violating the woman's property, that
is her uterus. No where else do you support the rights of the
individual
to life above the property of others. Where else do you support the
rights of the squatter above the property owner? Do you believe home
owners have no right to the use of deadly force to protect their
property?

Yes. By allowing the fetus to live in her uterus for 7 months she has
given implicit permission to the fetus to live there pending birth.
By
month 8 she has had ample time to take actions to evict the fetus
from her property.

By allowing it to use her property and resources and even by activily
changing her behaviors in support of the fetus's needs.

The definition of Slavery did you forget it?

slav·er·y
(slv-r, slvr)
n. pl. slav·er·ies
1. The state of one *bound in servitude as the property* of a
slaveholder or household.
2.
a. The practice of owning slaves.
b. A mode of production in which slaves constitute the principal work force.
3. The condition of being subject or addicted to a specified influence.
4. A condition of hard work and subjection: wage slavery.


Slavery being as it is human property and *property* has been bought and
sold it is NOT a requirement but is akin to it.

Then the fact the woman had consensual sex implies permission for the
first seven months.

It's a human baby, not a tape worm. They are here to be our
posterity. These babies ensure the existence of the species, men and
women get together and do the nasty to make these babies. The babies
did NOT appear from thin air to invade a woman's uterus.

Surely if you can let a Mexican move into the United States for life
without any recourse then a live human in a woman's uterus can be
allowed for 7 extra months without killing it. Or do you think that
killing human life is OK and if it is then you must be for killing all
trespassing humans and you want to kill the trespassing Mexicans too
just to be fair and make all your actions equal and all punishments equal.

Let me refer to the Supreme Court and the Commerce Clause... I believe
they said in Liberal terms that anything that "effects" the "economy" is
commerce and any slavery surely effects the economy, comes within the
purview of the commerce clause and the Federal Governments power.

Obama said your personal health care within your States is interstate
Commerce because it effects the NATION.

Which is why they also feel they have the power to regulate you growing
crops on your land for yourself.


That means ALL SLAVERY IS COMMERCE.


Don't you just love it when Liberals tie their own noose to hang
themselves with.

A few words have indeed had that happen to them. Not common, but it
happens.

They are.

One reason why legal English relies on archaic conventions is that the

meaning within a legal context.

>and again

You can do whatever you want, but if you guess wrong you may face the
consequences.

That is why it is useful to accept the conventional interpretations of
language. One has the possibility of understanding what someone
intended to mean.

>The way I see it the courts don't really mean what you say they mean.

But since you see everything through nutcase-colored glasses, that
hardly means anything.

Hint: it doesn't matter what >I< say they mean. What matters is what
THEY say that they mean.

It may or may not. Many slaves were never bought or sold, but they

An embryo isn't a person. And embryos past a certain stage have skin,
and when they do it does have a skin color.

You just said that it means different things to different people,
obviously the court ruling to me means something different than it means
to you... "according to you". That begs the question "which one is
following the law"?

Looks like you hit a Catch-22 in your little Liberal scam.

Debasing the constitution is your real goal. But you can't seem to
keep track of all the lies you tell to get to your goal, and now they're
conflicting lies that you tell that conflict with the old lies.

You know it turns my stomach just having to point out the lies, because
it's unseemly and just NOT all that dignified to point out the lies, but
then it has to be done, so as distasteful as it is... I'll step up and
make the personal sacrifice for the public good.


To you.... defining a word is akin to using a hammer to drive a nail
through a marble. A real man at this point would confess his goals of
getting more Socialism at any cost including the cost of losing your
honor, just so you don't have to get a real job and actually produce
enough of anything to pay for your own way in life. I'm confident "you"
have no such plans to pay your own way.

And, yes. That is precisely what he thinks. He clearly has a magic line that
a pregnancy must proceed across to change a fetus into a baby. Until that
line is crossed, anything can be done to terminate the life.

I won't speak for Bob but I will speak for me.

I believe a woman has every bit as much right to her property as any
one
else. All people have the right, including the use of deadly force,
to evict
others who have unlawfully entered their property. This doesn't mean
any
one is required to use deadly force. While I believe there is a huge
difference
between a fetus and a baby I also believe the line is blurry. The
approach
I outlined doesn't depend upon such a distinction.

Many states have laws of adverse posession. In some one can put up
a fence and use the property and provided this isn't on behalf of the
owner
and the owner doesn't complain within a set period of time the person
using the property can then file for and take ownership. The third
trimester
exemption, except in the cases of life and health, pending abandonment
falls into this category.

All words are debatable including the ones defined by me. But in a

The court, since it has the authority and not you.

But you are free to think otherwise, until they come to take you away
(and indeed even after they take you away, unless you are executed for
a capital crime in which case you won't be thinking anything ever
again).

Being quasi-retired, no. But then I have paid in the past (mortgage
was paid in full some 25 years ago), and my wife brings home the bacon
now so that together we "pay our own way" (not to mention helping the
kids out once in a while).

We're talking about fetuses, not children.

Making that correction, they are. God is the top abortionist, causing
far more miscarriages than all humans put together, and affecting
those who want children equally with those who don't.

then you can't "redefine" the constitution because it never delegates
that power.... And to interpret the constitution without that
authority is an egregious violation in the constitutional separation of
powers.

I have been made a citizen and delegated the power to stop you and the
courts from violating the constitution.

None, since they aren't changing the constitution without an
amendment. The text of the constitution is the same as it was before
any court case was decided, and so long as the words are unchanged,
the constitution is not changed.

That's good but we have new powers... where did they come from since
there is NO new text, they weren't in the constitution until the courts
interpreted the text and re-defined it all to mean something that is
different than what it had previously meant... other wise we wouldn't
be saying they interpreted it, they would have just used the text that
has been accessible with reasonable reading comprehension, by most
everyone for 200 years.

That the court had not so decided already, means only that there

Words do change in meaning, so that is plausible. "cruel and unusual
punishment" is a phrase that has greatly changed in meaning. This is
good.

And By the way, I see no implicit or explicit parts of that Amendment
that says ONE INDIVIDUAL can give the government permission to ignore a
law that government is directed by the constitution to follow....

I can't give up a RIGHT that the constitution says I have, that would
take an amendment, all I can do is maybe lay down and not compel or
demand that the government not violate the constitution's law.

But government has no RIGHT to search without a warrant even if I say
they can, because I don't have the power to speak for the constitution
which is actually what is demanding the government get the warrant.

Interestingly the Roberts Court has decided a guy riding in a car can
be taken into custody and strip searched without a warrant (or more
specifically without a valid warrant).

I'm wondering why with that very explicit right strip searches are
allowed at all except in very rare cases when someone has said
under oath that he or she saw a particular item being placed in
a particular orface.

To think that they would only abuse the constitution the way you want it
abused is silly, of course they'll pervert that to benefit someone that
pays them or that they like or whatever.


That old saying "YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW" seems to be appropriate.


Democrats have sown the seeds of judicial activism to get laws/powers
they think are worth lying and cheating and violating the constitution
to get.... Now that the shoe is on the other foot they cry like little

NO you can't own another human life.... that is slavery. So I am
correct, or the Supreme court has violated amendment 13 and
re-instituted slavery.

They did uphold slavery before so that really won't surprise me if they
found a way to *interpret* the constitution so that SLAVERY is still
legal....

It won't effect me as I don't have any urge to own a slave be it black
or white or whatever. It is odd that you can still buy and or own a
black human life, considering all the hoopla and the war and 500,000
dead over ending slavery. But I guess Liberalism is far more important
than the reality that slavery is going on directly under pregnant
women's noses.

If one cannot own another humna's live then a woman can evict
what you are calling a baby. The woman's body is her own and

crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist

1. Since the fetus has not been duly convicted of any crime, no
punishment of slavery has been authorized under the constitutional law
of the USA

2. A "women's body" by design is capable of carrying another life (or
lives). Since she doesn't have the ability to change her design, i.e.
her DNA, said design remains more than just her own. Similar to a car
vs. a unicycle. One is designed to carry several persons while the
other, only one person. Once she willingly had sex**, she accepted
the risk of carrying "passengers".

ITM, why isn't your claim that "a woman's body is her own" been
successfully used by women after their arrest/conviction for using/
having drugs/drug paraphernalia in her own home*?

*Performing activities within their personal property lines and for

Should I be required to carry any hitchhicker that I come across just

Because the laws are created by crazy people who can't keep

As I said, you make my point that the principles used by the
court aren't consistently applied. The rulings by the courts
as to the constitutionality are random based upon biases rather
than rationally decided.

I don't wish such a thing. I accept that doing so is the woman's
right
or else we are not arguing from a consistent set of principles. Do
you
believe you must pick up all hitchhikers you can when driving? Do you
believe anyone who wanders onto your property and establishes house
must be alllowed to do so?

Since you voluntarily stopped to allow them to enter your car, you
accepted the risk.

The only "requirement" of driving is to follow both the law regarding
the privileges of driving on public roads and not exceeding the design
of the automobile. Both of these issues are under the full control of
the driver.

>You're argument would be even stranger if I didn't choose the

Since you cannot control the design of your "car", you may only
control the "car" based on its design. From your "hitchhiker" analogy
you have the complete control of the car, the hitchhiker does not.

Anyone who you allowed into your house is your responsibility. You
attempt to compare a fetus in a women's body is akin to a stranger-in-
your-house. This is a false assertion on two fronts, where it asserts
a fetus:

1. is likened to a stranger, has the conscious ability to enter an
area not its own (and)
2. has the magical ability to enter a women's body without any action
on the part of two other persons.

This is what happens when the court(s) are comprised of liberals
(progressives) that prefer a "living constitution". Said
"interpretations" of constitutional law from failing to follow said
principles. Abortion is but one example where;

"In Griswold v. Connecticut (1965), for example, Justice William O.
Douglas declared that constitutional "penumbras" and "emanations"
voided a statute prohibiting the provision of contraceptives to
married couples. His opinion was a magnificent feat of imagination to
defeat an ill-conceived statute, but it was no less constitutionally
illegitimate."

The consistency of principles is for "life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness" for all beings under the jurisdiction of the United States.
When one aborts a being without due process of law, it is the
consistency of principles that defines such actions as murder:

"The unlawful killing of another human being without justification or
excuse."
http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/murder

However, the liberal/progressive Court created a "right", not by the
consistency of constitutional principles, but just what liberals/
progressives wanted; an "excuse" or "justification" of murdering
others…in this case a fetus. They did so by "interpreting", NOT by
any "consistency of constitutional principles”, but through the
laughable concept of "penumbras” and “emanations", terms NEVER before
found in the history of previous court cases, but considered in the
“interpretations” of the liberal/progressive courts through an ever-
changing, "living constitution".

"Perhaps the most basic of all the rules of constitutional
construction (since it is the rule which all other rules may be said
to be designed to implement) is the principle that a constitution is
to be given the effect and meaning contemplated by its framers and by
the people who adopted it..." Vol 16 American Jurisprudence
(constitutional law) Sec. 91

...The modern Supreme Court has for many years rejected the cautious,
limited concepts Marshall expounded and, despite its denials, has
become a quasi-legislative branch of the government."

Never said the fetus was responsible for rape or incest. Who then is

actions on her and a male’s involvement? Why are you blaming the
fetus?

The Woman made CHOICES... that placed her in her condition. One choice
was NOT getting her tubes tied or NOT taking birth control or not using
a condom or not refraining from vaginal intercourse.

There were many choices that could have been pursued to avoid the
situation in which she has decided to place herself, given that she is
pregnant, she chose to ignore all her other choices and NOW wants to
kill a human life. If I choose to put my hand in a meat grinder I will
pull back a stump..... and killing my kids after I grind off my hand
won't change or fix the choice I already made.

It only means that by killing them, I won't have to feed, dress or care
for the kids.

So there is NO force of law needed when the woman made the choice to
procreate. The First Lady Michelle Obama through government is making
you "choose" to order unhealthy McDonald's by forcing you to have to ask
for something other than they put out front on the menu. You get apples
rather than fries, unless you ask for fries in that happy meal.

They say it's OK since you still have the "choice". Well extrapolate
that to conception... you have the choice. If you choose to accept
pregnancy... well hello mommy. A woman is treated by Liberals like an
idiot, dumber than a cow. Women can't select foods for their kids and
they aren't smart enough to select contraceptives to stop having kids...
both have consequences and women want to turn that decision and
consequence over to the government to solve for them. I assume because
women agree with Liberals, that women are stupid?

I didn't know women were so ignorant and so absolutely useless? But
Liberals are teaching me that women really are that stupid.

The fetus didn't even exist when the crime took place.

The crime is rape NOT impregnating.... Perhaps the crime of
impregnating a girl without written permission could be sentenced with
having a vasectomy or spending 100 years in prison. But you don't want
government in your bedroom signing and notarizing documents do you?

If it causes a mental or physical condition that endangers the woman's
life, then that needs to be treated and the debt for that paid by the
rapist. No one asks the girl to keep the baby more than 9 months.

There is NO good way to repair a situation resulting from a crime...
You have what you have, some people lose a leg and some gunshot victims
end up with a colostomy bag and some lose mental capacity for life, a
rape victim loses 9 months recovery and the effects of the pregnancy.
They all have mental scars and killing a baby won't make everything OK
just as putting a fake leg on someone won't fix all their problems of
being a victim. We don't kill someone to get the gunshot victim a new
Liver.

You can't erase the crime by erasing the baby. Killing the baby is just
making the rape into a murder. The father/brother of the woman can't
go and shoot and kill the rapist, why can the girl kill the baby?

The problem is that the rapist will just kill the woman if you make the
penalty too great. The rapist will attempt to leave no witness.

It seems there are no win scenarios.

discusses the legal aspects of a constitutional right to privacy, even
though one is not explicitly stated in the constitution.

One example given is the right for parents to have their kid attend a
private school instead of public schools. Another is your right to
possess and look at pornography (even pornography that would subject
its manufacturer to criminal prosecution).

A 1977 case said that a local ordinance cannot dictate who can live
together (in that case a grandmother living with her two grandsons).

So?

I'm not sure what you are referring to, and I am certain that I never
claimed that the 4th amendment says that one individual can give the
government permission to ignore a law.

The 4th amendment does say that one person can issue a warrant under
certain conditions, but that doesn't ignore any laws.

>I can't give up a RIGHT that the constitution says I have, that would

Actually, you can.

People waive their right to take the 5th amendment in court rather
often.

>But government has no RIGHT to search without a warrant even if I say
>they can, because I don't have the power to speak for the constitution
>which is actually what is demanding the government get the warrant.

The constitution doesn't explicitly require a warrant. It merely says
that there a minimum requirements for a warrant to be issued in
situations where a warrant is required.

But that has nothing to do with the constitutional right of privacy.

You could read the decision,

http://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/11pdf/10-945.pdf

which I believe said that the strip search is allowed in the case of
someone who is taken into custody, and who is to be placed with other
prisoner. The people running the jail don't need a "witness under
oath" in order to check whether someone has a concealed weapon, before
placing them in a jail cell with other prisoners.

Are you prepared to define "is" for us here?


If there is a definition that you have and mine is different and the
courts is different, whose will we use?


You and I will be breaking the law, because the court reads it
differently. This means you will have to guess what the Judge will

And if I have even marginal comprehension of English, (and of
legalese), I will do a quite adequate job. Most people in fact do NOT

Then Liberalism means "you" want to cut government intrusion into our
lives and cut taxes.

Given the "dictionary" definition of Liberalism you will be voting to
get Obama out of office since he is NOT allowing what you believe in
like autonomy of the individual and favoring civil and political
liberties, government by law with the consent of the governed, and
protection from arbitrary authority.

Obama is the picture of arbitrary authority and he wants no consent he
wants total dictatorial control and violated the constitution and his
oath many times.

Odd that there is nothing in any of those definitions regarding
taxation or the social safety net. Maybe the attitude towards taxes
or the social safety net has nothing to do with liberalism.

He has the same powers that presidents preceding him had. He stole
nothing.

Bullshit.

Not completely. They dictate the terms of your following, and it
isn't generally negotiable.

More importantly to this context, the church is often acting as a
business, and hires people who are not members of the church. They
have power over those employees that does not stem from "voluntary
following". Their relationship to those employees is as an employer
and not as a church, and they should be compelled to follow the same
rules and laws as any other employer.

You could counter that employees are free to seek alternative
employment, and I can counter that you are free to seek an alternative
country where Obama isn't president. Good riddance.

brains and the resulting frustration causes a Tourette syndrome response
of lies and curse words.
