37. If anyone holds of us by fee-farm, either by socage or by burage, or of any other land by knight's service, we will not (by reason of that fee-farm, socage, or burgage), have the wardship of the heir, or of such land of his as if of the fief of that other; nor shall we have wardship of that fee-farm, socage, or burgage, unless such fee-farm owes knight's service. We will not by reason of any small serjeancy which anyone may hold of us by the service of rendering to us knives, arrows, or the like, have wardship of his heir or of the land which he holds of another lord by knight's service.

That should cover it.

What in the seven infernos are they thinking?

This is even unconstitutional by their own standards! I mean, the Magna Carta is a foreign (and outdated) law, which is the type of judicial precedence conservatives froth about.

We have to stop Creeping Sharia!

I'm not kidding, either. That's what this idiotic bill amounts to.

I'm guessing the ignorant kook has confused the Magna Carta with the English common law.

It's only fitting, seeing as how they want to take us back to an age of nobility and feudalism.

If only it was that sophisticated. These imbeciles are so deeply concerned about foreign (i.e., Muslim) law that they'd invoke the damned Magna Carta as the basis for anything, ignoring centuries of both English and American common law and judicial precedent.

What a bunch of rubes.

This seems to me more in line with the tenther mentality.

Birther or Tenther, it's still fucking stupid. It ignores centuries of both English and American common law and all judicial precedent. Hell, it even ignores the Constitution these imbeciles claim to love so much.

I swear these idiots are living in a damn Mel Gibson movie in their heads!

If I did that I would be asked to do a pee test.

I think you guys are missing the obvious. From the Preamble:

Know that, having regard to God and for the salvation of our soul, and those of all our ancestors and heirs, and unto the honor of God and the advancement of his holy Church and for the rectifying of our realm, we have granted as underwritten by advice of our venerable fathers . . .

Unlike our heathen Constitution, the Magna Carta gives high prominence to the Christian God.

So much for "Don't Tread On Me".

re: #11 Off Colfax

And of course, there's this:

10. If one who has borrowed from the Jews any sum, great or small, die before that loan be repaid, the debt shall not bear interest while the heir is under age, of whomsoever he may hold; and if the debt fall into our hands, we will not take anything except the principal sum contained in the bond.

11. And if anyone die indebted to the Jews, his wife shall have her dower and pay nothing of that debt; and if any children of the deceased are left under age, necessaries shall be provided for them in keeping with the holding of the deceased; and out of the residue the debt shall be paid, reserving, however, service due to feudal lords; in like manner let it be done touching debts due to others than Jews.

Did anyone point out to these numbskulls that New Hampshire is not a monarchy?
