The Bill of Rights, the first 10 Amendments to the Constitution, was established to protect people's rights, as individuals, from the
federal government. Where the 1st Amendment states the government "shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion,
or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," our federal government has made many rulings barring religious expression in our daily
lives (mostly public, but some even private.) A clear violation of the Constitution.
The second Amendment states, "The right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." It doesn't get any
simpler than this. Any law barring the ownership of any firearm is un-Constitutional. If people don't like this, then change the law
through the Amendment process, rather than betraying the Constitution and, through that violation, becoming a traitor to the
American people. Go back and read this Amendment. The 2nd Amendment, like the rest of the Bill of Rights, doesn't create rights,
it simply acknowledges and protects the God-given rights we already have.
I would encourage everyone to get a copy of the U.S. Constitution and sit down and read through it. Several things in the
Constitution are very clear, and stand in stark contrast to how we are told things are suppose to work. In the following
paragraphs, you will see several issues that expose how our politicians have trashed the constitution, making it practically a dead
document.
