The "Conspiracy Against Rights" Law, Title 18, Chapter 13, Section 241.
It says: Any Two or More Persons - who conspire to deprive a citizen of a right guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution (like the 2nd Amendment in the Bill of Rights), may be held personally responsible for damages. If these public officials conspire to injure, oppress, threaten or intimidate ANY PERSON in ANY STATE, Territory or District in the free exercise of any Right secured to him by the Constitution of the United States, that public servant(s) can be found guilty, and can be punished by up to 10 years in jail.")
A pretty good discussion on FR can be found here
The alternative to conspiracy against rights is the notion that government officials (elected or not) can be sued for criminal damages when the result of the officials’ acts (intentionally or not) deprive the citizen of their rights.
Because lawmakers and bureaucrats cannot be held liable, they have no fear of being stupidly wrong.
