The MCCS Legacy

Adherence to the Constitution, if adequately enforced, will negate the forces of corruption that have come to dominate politics and our daily lives. Understanding of the Constitution provides a clear standard of measure for those who would represent us in the Republic that we are.

The MCCS mission is, we believe, critical to the survival and sovereignty of We The People and America. The MCCS Constitution Education Outreach(CEO) project is targeted toward restoring a greater knowledge of the Founders wisdom and intent to the political discussions and debates of today. Such politics currently take place in a vacuum of knowledge about the fundamentals that the signers of the Constitution preached.

Our Secondary missions focus on enabling individuals, through education and involvement, to act on their own behalf to defend the principles represented by the Constitution and other legacy documents. An educated and involved electorate is an absolute necessity for the defense of the Republic.

The most effective education comes from involvement and in bringing one's education to bear on the defense of our Constitution and Republic. No battle is won from the sidelines. No victory is achieved without personal sacrifice. An educated militia may win a skirmish or two, but without persistent, practiced use of learned skills, an army will rarely win the war.

America was built, freedom was won, on the backs of those individuals dedicated to all aspects of the challenge. The Founders were practiced and informed; and their choice to be actively involved was often a costly one. But without their complete commitment, we would not be the free Nation we still are. And without MCCS members' commitments, we will not be a free Republic tomorrow. - Kenneth A. Capron ©2010

Freedom of Speech
In its recent opinion in United States v. Stevens, 130 S.Ct. 1577, 1584, 1586 (2010), the Supreme Court noted examples of excluded categories [of speech] such as obscenity, defamation, fraud, incitement, speech integral to criminal conduct, and child pornography.
