The 14th also helped start McCarthyism
U misunderstand bar
The MISUSE of the 14th has done that, the 14th just makes sure we all have rights
No
The 14 th is cryptic and written along side legal jargon
No its not. It quite clear
It’s double speak just like the trans human movement which is the 14 2.0
Intentional or not, it's being misused.
What part is difficult to understand??
Look up the legal definitions of the words
Corporations are people by legal definition
Ah there's your problem, you're letting the lawyer redefine words for you.
No
Lawyers write the law
We ARE people by biological definitions
we are people by legal definition
Lawyers do not write the law. Legislatures right the law.
We are humans by biological definition
The 14th was written quite clearly though, you're confusing it with what politicians (who are law writers) have done with it.
No I’m not
Legislators teams write the bills that the legislature presents. The teams are full of lawyers @Froski
The law was written to do exactly what they wanted it to do
Are you referring to the former occupations of the legislators?
Then look at the 14th with a regular dictionary, it is quite clear.
Eh...your best argument is that most legislatures are made of lawyers.
You guys think Pelosi, Sanders, etc are writing their bills?
It’s a law so a regular dictionary isn’t the right language the law dictionary is
Probably co-writing them as a team. Still, the law isn't written by practicing lawyers.
Bar certified
That’s like looking up French words in the Italian dictionary
I could be wrong but the way I see it is that legislature write the laws but lawyers interpret the laws
Y'all aren't getting my point
Politicians have usurped the power of the law by rewriting legal definitions. When the 14th was written, it was plain English, still is. The politicians have redefined its meaning by altering the definitions of those words. Don't fall for it.
I think it was the courts that interpret the law.
You have a point
Judicial system.*
Courts interpret the law against the Constitution
No it wasn’t look it up
Laws are written by _people who know legal jargon_ and use convoluted phrases to hide the things they want.
Is that better?
Falling for what exactly? The information that was passed down to me from my gg grandfather whom stood with gen lee?
certifiable more like it, I have never sat the for the "bar" but did acquire a JD
