    And you are telling me that an actual amendment was passed concerning a crime that nobody seems to know exists or what it is or how to define it?

      Where did I mention an amendment? The constitution gives Congress the ability to write laws. Those laws are not constitutional amendments or part of the Constitution in any way. They are part of the US criminal code. Well defined laws have been foundational to modern justice systems since at least the time of Hammurabi.
