To: HANG THE EXPENSE

I’m no Constitutional scholar. But the more I think of it, the more I think the Founders were referring to citizens in the Bill of Rights.

The 4A: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects…”

It’s not “people”, as in everyone. It’s “the people”, as in a specific group.

We see the same wording in the 2A.

Unfortunately, I don’t think any court will tackle this now. It would take a certain boldness the courts just don’t have.
