The Constitution DOES NOT "grant" anything. You are born with all

What the Constitution is _supposed_ to do is grant limited powers
to the government, at the consent of the people, and PROTECT the
natural rights that we all have. THAT's the part that's getting
raped.

Very good point you've made there. But the Amendments do try to
enumerate the rights some of us hold.

Actually, they don't (try to). Other than the thirteenth amendment,
their purpose is to explicitly limit the federal government (the
states less so).


IMO,once a territory joins the United States,they agree to abide by the
Constitution;ALL of it,not just the parts they like.

However,some judge allowed that "incorporation" nonsense to stand as
law,now it's established "precedent".
