Most of you don't seem to comprehend that the constitution isn't a rights-granting document, its a government-resticting one. The constitution doesn't give anyone the right to do anything, it restricts the government and its agents from taking certain actions under certain circumstances, and that's it.

It's really just semantics. It gives people the right to free speech because the government can't infringe that.

That basically means the same thing but it worded it better. "you can't fire me for telling you to fuck off! I HAVE FREE SPEECH!"....more people need to understand the constitution has nothing to do with that.

I mean, the idea that we can only do certain things because the government allows us to is pretty fucked.

Because having rights is such a bad thing that we should totally encourage reading the constitution in a way that gives us no rights.
