Portraying any of the first ten amendments as an after the fact is beyond dishonest. No version predating the bill of rights was ever run in prod. They decided that those ten features were necessary before they even released the thing.
- ben_w 4y agoI'm not American, to even partake at this level I have to Google which amendment is guns, which one is speech, and which one is self-incrimination. But Googling did reveal a few surprises like #27 being proposed during the same Bill Of Rights era of amendments, it only got ratified in 1992. And Delaware ratifying the constitution in 1787, the BoR amendments being proposed in 1789, Rhode Island ratifying the constitution in 1790, and the BoR amendments being completed in 1791. Stuff was weird back then.
