Controlling language is very important. This is why you should always reject their terminology.

Those who control the language of debate, control the debate. Those who control the debate, win the debate.

And yet that specific right is being infringed. It's done the way it's done because changing the Constitution is very difficult, which it should be. They've simply routed around it. We have federal prohibitions and gun laws, the pale shadows of which required amendments in the past.

I used to fear a Constitutional Congress, because it would open the floodgates to actually destroy it. Now I realize that it would be throwing fresh meat into an empty pen, demonstrating that the wolves are hungry, even if our livestock is all dead.
