Termyn8or -> RE: What the "new" interpretation of the Bill of Rights. (6/2/2016 7:16:07 PM)

Actually the second is the only amendments being enforced. The first is gone. Try to get redress of your grievances.
I read somewhere about three years ago that law enforcement wanted to use someone's house to do surveillance on a house across the street where they suspected drug activity. The family refused, and they all went to jail, and IIRC this was ironically in Colorado which just legalised weed due to a public initiative.
The fourth is totally gone wiht them recording every electronic communication on the planet. They eve Xray regular mail of the address or the return address is on a list. Go to a post office and ask them, but then they might not admit it.
The fifth is gone, they put people in prison for years without even involving a grand jury, the prosecutor can just do it. And testifying against yourself ? Well in at least one state if you refuse the alcohol test they will strap you down and take a sample forcibly.
The PATRIOT ACT pretty much took care of the sixth amendment.
The seventh is void. If not, that stupid bitch at McDonald's would have her million bucks.
The eighth amendment is taken care of by sending people to Gitmo. Funny how US jurisdiction follows but not rights.
The ninth pretty much means nothing now. Rights not enumerated. A court in Wisconsin (IIRC) ruled that people do not have the right to produce and consume the foods of their choice.
The tenth amendment is actually under quite a bit of contention these days, mainly over water rights. Many lawsuits are being argued of the environment and a few other issues.
At least all 48 contiguous states have sufficient signatures to petition for secession, but of course nothing is going to happen.
Castle Law Doctrine put the second amendment on the front burner. That is how to enforce all other amendments when the courts refuse to do so.
And fuck the rest of them, they mean nothing. When a company can pay you a salary and force you to work more than forty hours, that is slavery. Women's sufferage ? Remember Blacks got the vote before Women. In fact the US was not the first country to allow Women to vote.
And remember the Alien And Sedition Act. The ink was barely dry when they passed that.
The bottom line is that rights are not bestowed. If they are you owe the bestower and that is not really having the rights. A government big enough to give you what you want is also big enough to take it away. And since government produces nothing, whatever they give you was taken from someone else by force. That is theft.
Rights are taken, achieved, or whatever, and that is what the Constitution says. The government is supposed to enforce these rights, not take them away. That is the original reason for government. We have drifted away from that quite a bit and it really did start happening quite early.
We need to take a stand and make demands. Make it clear that they will have to kill every fucking last one of us. Let them think about that for a minute and imagine having nobody to govern, or tax, or oppress. If they have any brains they will capitulate. If not, sorry about their luck. Fukum.
