A small number may not like it, but America has voted.
And the amusing thing is- be honest now- will THIS COURT rule against it anyhow?
Because that is the question-
they will ratify it making it forever impossible to change
Scalia, Alito, Thomas, Roberts, Kennedy and maybe even the other 4 will all NOT overturn this at this time
Therefore, this is the wrong time for this.
It is not going anywhere, and is a major diversion for things that could go somewhere.
EVEN the guys father says he is guilty, and has attempted to separate his son from the others.
His own father wants him to give himself up, but is barking orders as to where/when

in the words of Benjamin Franklin (and I don't think there is anyone who is not a fan of Ben's-
"AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION IS WORTH A POUND OF CURE".
