New London police powers: the right to bite

It’s an interesting discussion about which I don’t claim to have the answer. I do think however that having a written constitution is not clearly better than a dynamic, changeable “unwritten” one.

If the US had even a semi-sane political scene then pointing to its processes would carry far more weight. I don’t believe the problems of a state can be in any way reduced to the presence or absence of a single legal document.
