Top Law Schools Promote Ditching the Constitution
In almost every state, law students who pass their state bar examination, which allows them to practice law, take an oath to support the U.S. Constitution.
But the country's top law schools teach future lawyers and judges the opposite.
Many now teach that the U.S. Constitution, the supreme law of the nation since its ratification in 1788, is broken and should be scrapped.
Law professors at elite schools are open about their disdain for the U.S. Constitution, the researchers found.
"They're saying they want to get rid of the Constitution—they're making no secret about it," said J. Christian Adams, president and general counsel of the Public Interest Legal Foundation. He's also worked for the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ).
Hans von Spakovsky, a senior legal fellow at The Heritage Foundation's Edwin Meese III Center and former DOJ counsel, agreed.
The radicalization of law schools is a threat to freedom not previously encountered in the nation's history, Mr. von Spakovsky said.
"In fact, some of them are very direct in teaching kids that they need to be revolutionaries, according to these courses that these law school students are taking," he told The Epoch Times...

"The stuff they're teaching now is straight-up Marxist. There's a big difference from just 10 years ago."
Mr. von Spakovsky and Mr. Adams have been sounding the alarm about what's happening within the country's law schools through articles examining law school curricula.
Schools often teach that the Constitution is a tool of discrimination that must be uprooted, Mr. von Spakovsky said.
