My point exactly. The words "shall not be infringed" are in the Constitution. So some are advocating directly violating the clear language of the US CON. No news there. Whenever the clear language is an impediment to what someone wants to do, they advocate ignoring it. Why not just throw it out altogether? It was written to limit the power of the government; now it is being used to limit the Rights of citizens.
Yes, the Republic has been lost. As I posted before, emotion will triumph over reason. Tyranny will be the result.
I suppose tyranny is OK, if you are the tyrant==if you get to make the rules. Our Founders had lived under that system, and rejected it. They gave us a republic---if we could keep it. Well, we couldn't.
