The Constitutional
Pit Bull
Article VI Is Absolute
Plain text. Original meaning. No compromise. The Constitution means what it says — and every official who swears to uphold it should be held to exactly that.
Bulletproof Second Amendment
The Supremacy Clause, Gun Bans, the People Left Outside the Constitution, and Judicial Hypocrisy
The Constitution is not a suggestion — it's binding law. Laws that violate enumerated rights are void from the start, not balanced, excused, or grandfathered in under tradition.
Courts quote Marbury v. Madison and praise plain-language interpretation. Then they create categories — "dangerous persons," "prohibited persons," "civil disability" — to bypass rights guaranteed to "the people." This book exposes that judicial doubletalk by tracking how courts keep constitutional words on the page while draining them of force in practice.
Drawing on Supreme Court cases from Gibbons v. Ogden to Bruen, founding-era debates, and Reconstruction-era citizenship fights, this book argues that fixed constitutional meaning has consequences. When the text says "shall not be infringed," officials don't get to rewrite that command every time enforcement becomes inconvenient.

The Constitutional Pit Bull
The Constitutional Pit Bull is an independent constitutional researcher, author, and advocate for plain-text interpretation of the supreme law of the land. Based in Nashville, Tennessee, and writing for the American citizen — not the bar exam — this work starts from a single premise: the Constitution means what it says.
When courts invoke constitutional language and then systematically carve exceptions the text never authorized, that gap is worth naming. These books, essays, and analyses do exactly that — tracking the distance between what was written and what government does, and applying Article VI without deference to convenience.
The Constitutional Pit Bull
The Constitution means what it says. Every episode applies Article VI to cases, legislation, and the arguments courts use to avoid enforcing plain text. Founding-era debates, Supreme Court decisions, and the gap between the words on the page and what government actually does.
