To be deprived of "life, liberty,or property without due process of law"...so this is to say that with due process of law, then one could be deprived of life, liberty, and due property?

Yes, indeed. As does the other boldfaced clause.

Yes indeed. -- A man decreed to be a felon [in a foreign court] can be deprived of his right to keep & bear arms, according to Scalia & Thomas..

Those of you here who are in awe of Scalia's "strict constructionism" need to ponder this dissent.

You are correct CID. To interpret it any other way is to try to mould it to mean what they want it to say. This is what Scalia was talking about. Scalia clearly meant that the constitution did not weigh in on the death penalty. Therefore it is the perview of the state or the people.
