It's too bad they don't read too well in the south. California is certainly better than every southern state combined, and the most poorly educated Mexican here is more intelligent and classy than the best redneck from down there.

The people in question were slaves that the states chose to admit. The migration of them (movement) refers to moving slaves from one state to another. No "people" other than slaves were discussed in that clause.

Georgia is starting to arrest them and have them deported by ICE. Since they are here illegally they don't have much recourse. The state is also going after the businesses. All good stuff.

Everything in the passage supports it. It talks about the migration of slaves and the importation of slaves, and the fact that the federal government can't abolish slavery before 1808 but may charge a tax or duty for them.

Instead of the minuteman project, maybe I should join a Patriot Project where we take up arms against members of the unconstitutional ICE department and allow the immigrants to cross the border unmolested.

Maybe you should. It would draw your issue to a head. You would then have the finest lawyers and constitutional scholars debating the issue in the public realm and the issue can be put to rest.

I would love if you would, that is actually a grand idea. And as lookout stated, after you are arrested by the Border Patrol and put in prison for supporting illegal criminals you can challenge all of your fantasies in a court of law. I think it would be a good thing for you. You probably don't pay taxes either.

Ugggggggggg... No we wouldn't, he told me earlier in this thread as he was in the Military for four years, got out and now makes more money than most general officers. So I say since he will be involved in smuggling more illegal aliens into the country we just get the feds to go seize all his assets, money, house, cars, whatever. Then we could use it to pay his public defender.

Also, I pay plenty of taxes. I'd even pay income taxes if you or anyone can show me the law that compels me to do so. Joe Bannister, John Turner, and Sherry Jackson are all former IRS agents who quit their jobs when they couldn't find that law. When they asked the IRS to show them the law that compels us to pay income taxes so they would know they were doing the right thing, they were told they could resign and were not shown any law. The government is my servant, and I am its master. If my servant doesn't abide by my rules (The U.S. Constitution) I will stop feeding the servant until he gets his act straight.

No, it doesn't mention slaves. Slavery can be inferred, but only in relation to the importation and duties, not in relation to migration. "Migration" as the forcible movement of slaves between states is a construct you brought in, not one that is in the passage, especially to the exclusion of all other types of migration.
