"I thought you guys were on my side when it came to the Constitution."

I am. However, when it comes to individuals and groups who have managed to put themselves among us to kill us, I would posit that these individuals and groups have self-defined themselves as an enemy of the Republic. The oath of office springs to mind, you know, that part about "enemies foreign or domestic?" Sounds to me as if the Founders understood that there are instances where Constitutional protections do not apply to every single human being in the country.

You could not be more wrong. Read the 14th Amendment. Read this quote...

"the insertion was rejected by the great majority, in proof that they meant to comprehend, within the mantel of its protection(of religious freedom), the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and Mohametan, the Hindoo and Infidel of every denomination."--Thomas Jefferson, from his autobiography, 1821, _The_Writings_of_Thomas_Jefferson_Memorial_Edition_, edited by Lipscomb and Bergh, 1:67


Who gets to decide which US citizen does and does not get Constitutional protection? The system you advocate is tyranny of the majority.
