If your argument is that you only support individual items that you "like" in the bill of rights, what is your argument for supporting any of them? Either they all deserve to be defended, or the argument just devolves into "I support that because it might affect me!"
- dllthomas 14y agoThis is crazy talk. There's absolutely no reason the constitution couldn't be right about some things and wrong about others.
