This is a purely educational website. Nothing here is legal advice or creates or implies an attorney-client relationship. If you have a specific legal issue, PLEASE talk to a lawyer who practices where you live—laws vary from place to place, and how they're applied varies from courthouse to courthouse. Your local county bar association can probably refer someone.

It's best to keep all discussions in the comments. But if you really need to reach Nathan privately, go ahead and email him at n.e.burney@gmail.com. He won't mind.

Yes, I hand-wrote that Constitution in the corner. Cut-and-pasting the real thing looked stupid. As a bonus, though, I found out that my real-life handwriting is extremely similar to that of the original (often uncredited) scribe, Jacob Shallus. Obviously I don’t use the long S or all those flourishes, but the rest was surprisingly close!
Your handwriting is actually that good? That’s impressive.
Depends on whom I’m writing for. Quick notes for my eyes only are nigh indecipherable. Where clarity is important I print neatly in small caps. But for ordinary legibility, yeah, it looks a lot like that.
It seems like most of the issues that you pointed out could just as easily be resolved by legislation as by adjudication. So how did all those things become considered constitutional issues?
I believe we’ll be discussing these very concepts before too long!
I love the clothing!
Those are some mighty short generation times you’re talking about there. The only people I know whose grandparents were old enough to be involved in Sixties protests are under the age of ten…
but then, my grandfather’s grandfather was born 171 years before I was.
