But it's not about freedom.

Yes, it is.

That's what it's all about, in fact, since, without them, what's to stop
the next Demoncrap to enter the Oval Office from suppressing ALL freedoms?

Precisely so. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights are only scraps of

lack the means to *compel* the government to honor those guarantees, should it
ever prove reluctant to do so.
