[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 1756167, member: 7900"] [FONT=Georgia][SIZE=3]Well, it's been a while since I read the Declaration of Independence. Kindly remind me in what section of that does it grant us rights to free speech, press, assembly, religion, and weapons rights. While the Declaration does much with the "rhetoric" of freedom and rights, it is the law within the constitution that has more strength than "rhetoric." If there is any weakness to the Constitution, it is with those that wish to "construe" the Constitution to mean something else. Those that advocate judgements on issues based on foreign law instead of the Constitution, those that advocate for the Constitution to be a "living" document, and those that outright ignore parts of the constitution in demanding that judges limit the rights of others. As for the American born in Vietnam that wrote and gave the speech, there should be all kinds of accolades given to that man.[/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
