Nope. These are rights granted by the Constitution. The difficulty would be in getting people to care.

- freehunter 12y agoYou're not wrong. The problem, though, is that I'm still right. Yes, theoretically we can change things. The way this happens is through our elected officials, not via us directly. If our elected officials are unwilling to change, there's not much we can do to force it. Literally the only way the Constitution allows for us to change things is if we vote someone into office who will change it, and then it still hinges on them actually changing things, which historically hasn't happened. You can repeat the Constitution until you're blue in the face, but just because something sounds easy on paper doesn't mean it's easy or even plausible in reality.
- stainednapkin 12y agoPerhaps you're unwilling or unable to conceive of how change can be accomplished but that doesn't mean it's impossible. Are you having some kind of personal contest to see how many times you can say "theoretically"? Did I say it would be easy? Or are you just going to make things up and ascribe them to me. What's your point, anyways? To convince everyone that we should just give up and accept the state of things?
