Reply to: United States Constitution

[WTFH]

There are 27 ratified Amendments to the US Constitution, the first 10 of which are the Bill of Rights. Why stop after the first 2?

And don't forget, the best way to treat #2 is to highlight one phrase, not the whole amendment.

Fleeing one country and hoping for a better life in the new world.

Expats.

Anyone not prepared to execute a treacherous Labour MP in the name of national liberation.

European courts risk corroding free speech to create special status for Islam

You would be one of the first to bitch and whine if a European supranational court was dictating to a sovereign state that its courts' legal rulings were impermissible, and that its citizens' 'ooman rights were being infringed.

2st Amendment

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

The 2nd amendment states that the state does not give you the right to bear arms, that it shall not infringe your right to bear arms.

At least it wasn't the right of the people to keep and arm bears...
