i believe that we Americans have no rights at all, I think of them as priviledges
because in fact, a right is something that can not be taken away, they are god-given, and they granted to us a birth.
The Government has passed several legislations to impinge on our so-called rights for example, The Patriot Act, Marshall Law, and The 16th Amendment requiring us to pay an income tax when in fact there is no law requiring us to pay it. Our Government have been slowly fucking us over for years
So the public does not really have the right to bear arms then. Thats interesting, i wonder if NRA nuts have actually read the II amendment and understood what it meant.
YOU SHOULD READ THE 2ND MORE CAREFULLY YOURSELF "IN PARTICULAR USING THE RULES OF ENGLISH GRAMMAR NOTICE THE COMMA THAT IS WHY WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS.Of course you probably think members of the supreme court for over 200 yrs don't know how to read as well as you
@jrgo00 Wrong sir/madame. The public is the Malitia. The Constitution forbade a standing army. Once the Continental Army was raised it had to be disbanded within two years. In any case, the amendment is not repealed.
You don't even knowwhat you've written; "the 1689 English Bill of Rights, works of the Age of Enlightenment pertaining to natural rights, and earlier English political documents such as Magna Carta (1215)."
Perhaps we are the scum of the Earth. But the scum of the Earth were the people who ispired those Americans.
The way the old Greeks had a picture of the people - scum (demos) seeing trough barns and want the power - on the other hand - I think laos is the old Greek word for "the People"...
at least the old royal structures changed tack tick a little bit!
@givemeanyname1 NEGATIVE! According to the Constitution, we are "gauanteed Republican form of government". The United States of America is a republic, not a democracy. And none here have ever claimed to be inventors of either.
99% of all Americans have given up,waived there common law rights. you just did not know that you did it. Have a SSN ? why ?Contrary to popular belief, there is no law requiring a U.S. citizen to apply for a Social Security number to live or work in the United States so you have one right ? then you waived your common law rights. Have a drivers license ? you have waived your common law rights.
how do you mean "take back", were they taken from you, by whom? And do you believe in this ambulatory approach to law, that constitutions being futuristic can stand the test of time?
In light of this, what of the failed gay marriage amendment to the US Constitution>perhaps that is not a good example.
in New Zealand there are no constitutional rights. There exists only the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990. This is an ordinary non-entrenched statute. There was an attempt, in the the mid 1980s, to bring in a supreme law Bill of Rights. However, this idea was rejected and the Bill was enacted in ordinary statutory form- repealable by Parliament by a simple majority vote. (see the operative sections of the NZBORA, ss.4 (refects the orthodox Diceyean view of Parliamentary supremacy),5 ,6,).
Guevaristas: I always thought they did it via the amendments so it was all consented by the people and these rights weren't forced upon them. Given by liberty accepted by liberty. The ultimate libertarian document
The rights were amended to the constitution shortly after James Madison proposed them. The rights were controversial, and a new form of government to rule the land was needed immediatly. So in order to secure the unity of the states, "congress" approved the constitution with the beleive that a bill of rights would be coming shortly.

It was the Ancient Greeks and the English who invented democracy, all America did was write it all up into a document and say that it was their idea.

why did these rights come from "amendments" to the US Constitution, ie why were they not included in the original document?
