Using the Bill of Rights as Toilet Paper
I was chatting with Ben the other day, and we were talking a bit about the Bill of Rights. I was explaining how I am familiar with the Bill of Rights, but I am not so good at recognizing which amendment goes with with number. So I thought maybe it would be good to read it over again. While reading, I was noticing how little the Bill of Rights is actually respected. The following are just examples, and are by no means intended to be comprehensive.
1st Amendment: All of the things that are done with faith-based initiatives. Attorney General Gonzales speaks of prosecuting journalists.
2nd Amendment: San Francisco has banned handguns.
4th Amendment: Illegal NSA wiretapping of US citizens.
5th Amendment: Guantanamo Bay.
