any public official who deviates, disrespects or scorns the constitution will be immediatlly removed from office, forfeit all belongings(`cept the shirt on itz back) and to be tried in full military( could be civilian)court. sentencing would be based on what and how severe the infraction was. there is no one-size-fitz-all as with the present judicial system we have now. it will be based on merits of the case...or lack of them. i like the military because even though obama iz trying to neuter the military...military tribunals set the tone for what NOT to do!! on a different note, ' don't ask don't tell' needs to be put back in place immediatly!! what a friggen` joke. not sayin` gays can't tow the line, just sayin`i don't need some dude liken` on me when in the foxhole!' bit off more than i can chew...thatz 2 topics. atheists take notice...there are no athiests in the foxhole.

As much as I appreciate your comment The probability anything like this will ever occur is remote at best. Congressmen and Senators are protected from punishment of misdeeds unless indited and convicted for a statutory crime. Fortunately this has happened more then once! But never as a direct result of a constitutional violation. My solution would be to take the Congressman or Senator from their chamber to the park across from the federal buildings and hang them in front of a crowd of people, much the same as we did with rustlers and horse thieves in the 1800's. A few of these punishments in Washington, D.C., and things would change. A little vigilante justice would do wonders in the United States. When I was on active duty we had a sign over our hooch. It read "kill'um all and let God sort'em out." Worked for me!

We should write our Congressmen and Senators and ask them to codify vigilante justice! We can't threaten them! Begging doesn't work. You can't even carry a sign with the words "Vigilante Justice" in Washington D.C., so how else is one to get rapid results?

tough call on that one. alls i know iz that obama has crossed the line.

In a democracy, there is no such thing as "rapid results". That's the kind of thing Hitler did when he burned government buildings and took over the German government. Rapid results mean that a coup has taken place. They have no place in a democracy where "results" take longer because they are made in the voting booth. If you want "rapid results" move to a banana republic.

ecolady

And who will administer this "Vigilante Justice" that you are calling for? You??? God help us, if the likes of you are given any power! Vigilante Justice is not justice. It is the opposite. And it is what our democracy protects us from. People like you are the ones that I am afraid of.

The United States Constitution was one of the most loved and respected documents in History. Don't mess it up. I loved it and fought for it for 20 years. When the took Prayer out of the schools and removed anything to do with God from the documents of our founding Fathers they are out of their minds.95% of the US citizens believe in God and over 50% of the atheists really believe in God. I was a door gunner/crew chief on a UH-1D Slick ship in Viet Nam. We dropped troops into live fire areas. More that have of the atheists when they jumped out of the helicopter into a live fire area, the first thing out of their mouth was "God get me out of here". Leave our Constitution alone Leave God in there. This is and was and will be "One Nation Under God". That includes leaving "In God We Trust" on all of our money and bring prayer of at least a 5 minute time for prayer in a schools. If more children were made and I said it right MADE to go to Church on Sunday, there would be less crime, murder, and everything else that is bad. In the final statement "LEAVE GOD IN GOVERNMENT ALONE.'

There is only one amendment to the Constitution I'd like to see altered. By enacting it you'd see organized crime virtually disappear in less than a year and that's only one for instance.
Please feel free to add any others you can think of after reading my idea.

Simply recognize once convicted felons as dangers to society who lose their 5th amendment right to remain silent. If questioned by law enforcement about a particular crime they have no choice but to answer or sit in jail for contempt of societal welfare.
Face it folks, there are career felons who walk among us
only because they have a 5th amendment right.
I personally know of numerous unsolved homicides where a "person of interest" (a convicted felon)simply sat silent when questioned.
One involved a fellow big city officer killed during a robbery. The mother of the alleged murderer called and advised that her son did it. She said that he went into hiding in another State and could be found at a particular motel. She said she was giving the information in hopes of collecting the reward. They found him....arrested him..and let him go when no other evidence could be found. If the law didn't provide him the 5th amendment to hide behind
this career criminal would have had no choice but to answer a series of questions or sit in jail until he did.

As for organized crime, the FBI has charts of entire crime families in which hundreds of named career felons hide behind the 5th. Imagine a Congressional committee investigating organized crime calling in the top fish.
Televise the investigation on C-Span, sit back and enjoy.

Hey Cesspool Jones. I like your business flier. Get much business from it? As far as being a "braindead, sheeple ass moron who the world doesn't need any more of, please apply everything you said to yourself. Have a good day.

i'm sorry and no...not one call.

The Constitution of the United States needs no amending at this time. References to God in the Constitution should remain, because that is what the founding fathers who wrote it wanted it to say. References to God on US currency also should remain. As long as people who don't believe in God are not discriminated against, there is no harm in keeping the references to God in the Constitution. Since being an atheist is not a crime in this country, these people should be respected and left alone. Amendments to the Constitution are serious business and need ratification by all the states. Proposing to return prayer to the schools is another matter. Asking someone to pray to a god they don't believe in is stepping on their rights to believe as they want. I wouldn't want to stand there and not pray, but if I were an atheist, I would either have to pretend to pray or feel uncomfortable if I were the only one not praying. I am not an atheist, far from it. But inserting God into the school curriculum is not a good idea. Let the parents take the kids to church every Sunday, as I did for my children, and leave the teaching of religion to the priests and the pastors. I don't want a lay teacher instructing my children on religion. Thats my job and my church's job.

so your saying any public official can just piss all over the constitution with no regard without anything being done about it? you don't think some kind of law or amendment to prosecute these offenders is needed? why have the constitution in the first place? as far as school...what about a moment of silence? if an atheist can't work that, then what?...kiss his ass??
