In article , Gunner says...

again..the actions are demonized as violations of the Constitution and
Civil Rights..witness Patriot Act, Gitmo etc etc.

Now could you please explain exactly why your view of the
BOR is a single, unitary amemdment - the second, of
course. And you will move heaven and earth to see to
it that the second is upheld verbatim, and stamp and
holler if anyone who supports it is denigrated.

Yet the adminstration can **** all over the rest of the
BOR and you seem to jump for joy. Part of me wants to
see Ashcroft do something that would drive you nuts,
something crazy like calling in all private weapons
in the US, under the guise of the patriot act. *Then*
you might take off the blinders and see that those
guys are not your friends. If they **** on part of
the BOR, they **** on the WHOLE THING. Including
the second.
