You added the two last bits later. And they contradict one another. One says a living constitution has mechanisms for amending it. The second one says the exact opposite. A living constitution DOESN'T need to be amended because it somehow evolves. I'm not sure how you evolve without changing but I'll let you explain.

I was responding to your previous dumb posts
I know I will have to go slow....
so here it is step by step
I said
redefining words to confuse the masses are their stock in trade as is a "living" constitution such that no one really may be secure in any right and new rights can be discovered to further their control
then you said
So you don't agree with a living constitution but you contend it gives you the rights to an assault rifle? Am I correct in assuming that? In the original constitution, women and african americans had no rights. In fact, they couldn't vote and african americans were 2/3 a person. Are you saying that's the way it should still be? Because if you don't believe in a living constitution, it should still be the same, yes?"
etc..ad nauseam
so it was obvious you had no clue concerning the term "living" constitution.
so I was telling you that me not agreeing with a "living constitution" doesn't mean that I think the constitution cant be changed, no we have mechanisms for its change . a living constitution isn't one in which there are no amendments possible or who cares there are amendments...makes no difference..amending it is not necessary or if it is amended, well the meanings can change there too......its ALIVE..... a living constitution isn't one in which there are amendments or there aren't amendments
the constitution we have can be changed and there are mechanisms for it, and if we are to change it, im in favor of following the actual mechanisms to change it..not just letting times and smart people and courts and liberals redefine words and meanings or finding new powers of government
a living constitution requires no such law change or if there is an amendment, that can evolve as well, the whole thing evolves based on the dreams of the masters
you obliviously didn't know what the term meant so you took it to mean I don't believe in an amendment mechanism...
in my exasperation with your post and haste typing in the cold on an iphone out in the field
it may have not included all the niceties or spelled it out in detail but you didn't know the term but now you act like you do
