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.
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.
