    This needs a Warning?

    A small publishing company is under fire after putting warning labels on copies of the U.S. Constitution, Declaration of Independence and other historical documents.

    Wilder Publications warns readers of its reprints of the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, Common Sense, the Articles of Confederation, and the Federalist Papers, among others, that “This book is a product of its time and does not reflect the same values as it would if it were written today.”

    I really dont know what to say...
    "Necessity is the plea of every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants, it is the creed of slaves"

    William Pitt, 1783

    If they'd have put "This item is flammable. Keep away from open sources of flame." on it, I wouldn't have said anything. But I'm with you Sav. WTF, over? :?:

    Indecision may or may not be my problem.

    Just in case everyone has forgotten some of these fine documents, here are a few links.

    http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html
    http://www.ushistory.org/declaration/document/index.htm
    http://www.foundingfathers.info/federalistpapers/
    http://www.usconstitution.net/articles.html

    I found it funny to skim through since I probably haven't really taken a look at these for a decade. Its interesting to think what people had in mind back about our future.
