“Feinstein: We cannot allow the rights of a few to override safety of all...”
Imagine you were trying to abolish slavery and someone said this right out loud.
“Put simply, we cannot allow the rights of a few to override the safety of all.”
Sure. And while you’re at it, let’s do away with that pesky “presumption of innocence”. We all know that they’re guilty any way.
And how about that “unreasonable search and seizure” clause? If you have nothing to hide, why should you mind the government arriving at your house unannounced and without a warrant?
Free speech? Can’t have the rights of a few overriding the rights of muslims not to be offended.
Freedom of religion? Only if it’s not a “hateful” religion that offends others.
The right to life? Well we’ve already taken it away from the unborn, so why not remove it for infants, the disabled and elderly as well? After all, we can’t “impose” a “burden” on people.
Habeus corpus? It’s ok for some people, but not for those who allegedly make a video to “insult Islam” thereby triggering a “spontaneous riot” in Benghazi and excusing the President’s decision to leave Americans to their death.
