    The left is philosophically deconstructionist. Shakespeare doesn't say what he wrote, Shakespeare says what the reader perceives. The notion of "original intent" as applied to the Constitution is, to the left, farcical. We cannot know the original intent. It's all a matter of individual perception -- or, more precisely, the perception of different socioeconomic classes, different genders and different races.

As someone who has taken a class on Shakespeare, this is pretty hilarious. Because trying to decode what Shakespeare said WITHOUT the tools of deconstruction would be very very very hard.

To Mr. Prager I give you this lesson, you do not understand riots, you do not understand racism, you do not understand waking up in fear that your child might die from a trusted person and that there will be no justice for your family.

Mr Prager, your heart seems cold and unwilling, I would not have such a heart in my bosom, for the dignity of the whole body. But don't read too much into it, it's probably not truth.
