Bill Of Rights, Prior Reservation Of Rights?

Actualy 2+2=5 for sufficently large values of 2. If you accept the fact that counting numbers do not exist in nature and further accept physics nomenclature for significant figures, 2 with no zeros holding the decimal places is a single significant figure. Therefore 2.49 to a single significant figure is 2.
2(2.49)+2(2.49)=5(4.98)

??? They are the original Bill of Rights. They are individual rights that protect our citizens from the government. They were added at the insistance of some of the original states due to problems some of them had that certain circumstances hadn't been eunumerated within the body of the Constitution.

The later Amendments are seen as collective rights. Some constitutionalists believe that all the later Amendments are unconstitutional. I would agree with that myself with a couple exceptions. Most of the later amendments were unnecessary, unwise, or both and should be repealed.

:rolleyes: "An amendment requires that three quarter of the states ratify it. It was approved by the people. This is how it's done. They can't be made into law or taken away without the consent of the people."

:rolleyes: any of the ammendments may be repealed... ANY OF THEM... just get enough idiots to vote for it...

I wouldn't argue with that. If we, the people allow ourselves to repeal them, then we'll lose them. Tell me the truth (unless you are a student and all your friends and you are studying the Constitution), just how many people do you know personally who have a clue what the Constitution says? Most people only seem to know bits and pieces about it and most are confused about even what they think they know.
