Sometime ago, I departed from this platform. The reasons for doing so are, if anything, even more relevant now. But, sadly, I think I will need a platform during next 4 yrs. Hence, I am now at @frank-bowman.bsky.social. Come follow me there, if you like.

2/2 So, farewell to those of you who have followed me during the last six or so years of the fight to sustain American constitutionalism against Trump & his toadies and acolytes. If I find another platform, I'll come back one last time to tell you what it is.

@RandyEBarnett 2a/ But enough of this. These are hardly points on which either of us is likely to persuade the other. Particularly on Twitter, or whatever this thing is called. So I bid you a respectful good night.

@alecrogers1968 @RandyEBarnett 2/2 The questions for serious persons not pretending a dangerous naivete are HOW judges go about the job of making law, and whether the law they make is, on balance, good for the society.

@RandyEBarnett Oh please. When text of static "written constitution" is read 1 way for many decades & then exactly the reverse when justices of new political valence take majority, it is not "written constitution" that governs, but preferences of "unconstrained majority of judges."

@RandyEBarnett "Jurisdocratic rule by an unconstrained majority of judges"? Anti-textualist, anti-originalist, anti-majoritarian 2d Amendment everybody-gets-a-gun crackpottery? There's a common thread here somewhere...if only I could put my finger on it...

Yes sirree. Why if those clueless Canucks had common sense gun laws like ours, they could have a manly homicide rate of 6/100,000 like ours, instead of a feeble 2/100,000 as they do now.

Canadians: Leave your car key fobs near the door for home invaders. “A lot of them arrested have guns on them. Real guns. They’re loaded” If only Canada had common sense gun laws.

Always distrust any congressman (D or R - looking at you Mark Green) who insists on putting M.D. after his name, as if that title is on par with that of elected representative of the people, or lends him some special wisdom that members of other professions do not have.
