Eric Holder: Banning Homeschooling Doesn’t Violate Fundamental Rights

[Ferd]

I wish the black panters would mistake holder for a white racist.

The issue of whether parents should have a right to control how their child is educated, is a decision rightfully left to the legislature.

Those of you on the right should be cheering "states rights."

Eric holder is a proven liar. and this double talk should not fool a soul, except a fool.

This criminal and the regime he works for abhors the very notion of "states rights", as they have proven repeatedly. In addition, so long as the federal government interferes in education at the state level, with national standards imposed by means of extortion, the states are not acting independently, but are complying with standards the federal government has no authority to impose.

Secondly, the state legislatures do not have a legitimate authority to treat citizens as property any more than the federal government does .... and mandating attendance to a state run school, under threat of stealing people's children for refusing to comply, is not a legitimate power held by either state or federal authorities.

Yes, slavery is unconstitutional, and all are bound, federal and state, to respect the constitutional freedoms and rights outlined in that constitution.

Amendment IX

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.


So, the 9th Amendment clearly says that those certain rights outlined in the constitution should not be construed as the only rights people have. Therefore it is totally illegitimate for Holder the liar to claim he can't find a reference in the constitution that prohibits the states from mandating education. It doesn't have to be stipulated ... the constitution is a delegation of authority to the federal government, which is limited to only those specified powers .... it has no other authority to act. But one of those powers is to protect individual rights, liberties and immunities from being violated by anyone ... including the state legislatures.
