 Your right to think as you wish to say what you think to publish what you say your right to develop your own personality I've told O'Reilly a hundred times you better be grateful that that's a natural right Your right to worship or not to worship your right to associate or not to associate your right to defend yourself Which of course is not the right to shoot deer. It's the right to shoot a tyrants if they take over the government And we have to drive them away or we have to secede Just as we seceded from Great Britain Your right to stay in your house without the government's troops coming in the Third Amendment and the quintessential American right in the fourth the right to be left alone Which of course today we call privacy the fourth is the most unique one because it says The people doesn't say the citizens.

Do you consent to the government by walking on the sidewalk? If if the government really believes that our laws are natural then how could we have the Patriot Act? Which permits federal agents to write their own search warrants Forgetting the requirement that only judges can issue search warrants under the Fourth Amendment I could tell you stories about the Patriot Act, but not only does it permit federal agents to write their own search warrants So FBI agent A writes a search warrant authorizing FBI agent B There's got to be at least two of these characters involved in this and then B can serve the search warrant And when they serve the search warrant, they say by the way, you can't tell anybody that we serve this on you That's another violation. You can't tell anybody the government's going to enforce silence.
