Juvenile offenses continue to rise in number and severity and many of those are because

    Loving v. Virginia Loving v. Virginia tells me in this case that the Constitution of the United States then were unfair and unjust to the Loving Family.

Although the state of Virginia had its own objective concerning interracial marriages‚ I feel that our Constitution should have enforced what laws were emplaced within The Constitution of the United States. That’s why they were written to protect and to keep good law and

The Supreme Court is designed to rule only on the constitutionality of both federal and
