Why Are Liberals Against The Constitution

Why do liberals hate the Constitution?

Fox News supported 2 of the 3 things you listed. You are truly beyond hope. I suppose the only thing left to do is wait out this Conservative phase you are going through.

Do liberals hate the Constitution because they don't want to take the time to make their desires laws?

no, progressives hate the constitution because it stands directly opposite their intended outcome — centralized government — centralized control from a federal perspective.Without amending the constitution, which has only been done 17 times since the original Bill of Rights — it isn’t likely anyone will get done what they want to — the way the founders intended it.

Why are Indian liberals selective? They want FOE for Khalid who is preaching against constitution, but not for Sulman Russide or Taslima. Why?

I'll turn this around on you. Do you support the right of Salman Rushdie, Taslima Nasreen and Tarek Fateh to express themselves freely without threat of violence?I'm assuming most reasonable people would say yes at this point. Good news! The majority of liberals agree with you! You make the false assumption that liberals don't support the likes of Rushdie, Nasreen and Fateh, which is a false characterization. You cannot call radical Muslims liberals by any yardstick.Now, my question is, do you support Umar Khalid’s right to speak? If you don't, I would like to understand why you think certain types of speech (such as that of Rushdie, Nasreen and Fateh) are preferable to others (such as Umar Khalid) ? Is it because the former kind of speech lines up with your point of view while the latter doesn't? In that case, you are being hypocritical. Either you allow all kinds of speech and expression, even that which offends you personally, or you disallow any speech that offends anybody.

Can Liberals be against gun control?

Yes. Many liberals are against gun control and many are gun owners. I know self proclaimed conservatives who are for gun control and do not own guns. Gun ownership is a personal choice and not really an ideological choice.
