THIS IS A MUST READ ARTICLE – Major-General [And, formerly, first Chief Justice of the Kansas Supreme Court] Thomas Ewing, [Jr.]
THIS IS A MUST READ ARTICLE – Major-General [And, formerly, first Chief Justice of the Kansas Supreme Court] Thomas Ewing, [Jr.], “which the Constitution extends to citizens and aliens alike on every foot of ground within the jurisdiction of the United States–the right of exemption from punishment by ex post facto laws; the liberty of speech and of the press; the right to keep and bear arms
. . . The constitutional guaranties were in the way of coercive
reconstruction; and Congress was forbidden, in peace, to touch any one
of them. Unless these ancient and sacred liberties could be destroyed, vigorous military despotisms could not be established–and,
without such despotisms. Radical reconstruction was impossible. While
those guaranties remained in the Constitution, and were obeyed, the
whole governing talent of the South could not be disfranchised by a
sweeping ex post facto law . . . It was indispensable,
therefore, to get rid of those constitutional provisions, which are at
once guarantied of the liberties of the people, and prohibitions of
power to Congress.”, July 4, 1868
