Look carefully at the Bill of rights, each amendment put a restriction on federal government, not a restriction on immoral behavior.

If that were true, they would have called it "the Bill of Limitations on Government."

Fact is, the Bill of Rights does limit government, but its primary purpose is the protection of the God-given, unalienable rights to life, liberty and property.

The heart of the original BoR is the Fifth Amendment prohibition on the taking of human life without an individual being charged, tried and convicted on a capital offense.

Wow, you really know how to blow the air around don’t you?

So I take it you would tell a doctor performing an abortion to save the life of the mother, the unborn or all that you are going to see to it they get hanged in federal court for not getting a court order?

What a putz!
