I Agree That This Is VERY Dangerous!

Hat tip to Tam and her vigilance from The Porch as she calls attention to the following post:

Stop the Compact for America Con-Con Initiative

The basic argument against convening an Article V constitutional convention is that based on the right of the sovereign People in convention to alter their government whenever it fails to secure our rights (as proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence), an Article V constitutional convention could not be limited as to what amendments might be proposed, and therefore could lead to the proposal and ratification of dangerous alterations to the Constitution. The Article V requirement that three-fourths of the states must ratify any new amendment would not necessarily protect us from harmful amendments because, just as our original Constitutional Convention did in 1787, any new constitutional convention could prescribe an entirely new ratification procedure, such as holding a national referendum.

Let's face it, the population centers are all based in handful of urban, liberal, and idiotic cities. We already know the damage they can do in elections. Do we really want them getting the chance to gut the Consitution—especially, Amendment II, which we know they would in a heartbeat?

These are the same people pondering ‘We the People’ Loses Appeal With People Around the World.
