Default Serious Reverence Today

Today is Constitution Day.

There is a nice article by Justice Moore on the subject that I recommend to all.

In 1828, schoolchildren were taught to revere the Constitution for which Washington and Nicholas fought. In the "Elementary Catechism on the Constitution of the United States" by Arthur J. Stansbury, children were told the following:

On this great plan, or Constitution the safety and happiness of the United States, does, under Almighty God, mainly depend: all our laws are made by its direction or authority; whoever goes contrary to it injuries and betrays his country, injures you, injures me, betrays us all, and is deserving of the heaviest punishment. … Let every American learn, from its earliest years, to love, cherish, and obey the Constitution.

True words, which have been apparently forgotten.

Thumbs up Re: Serious Reverence Today

If our Founding Father's came back to life, they would grab an arm full of ARs and rid Washington of the scum that currently resides there.
