I’m getting sick of individuals holding the rest of the country hostage to their selfish demands by invoking the Constitution.

They claim that they have a right to this, that, or the other thing, but it seems to escape them that others have rights too. When they demand their rights and seek to impose them on others, all the others lose their rights.

Everyone cannot have everything only their way. It’s simply not possible. In a country of 300,000,000 people there are going to be 300,000,000 opinions of what should be going on.

The Constitution was put into effect to try to restrict government and give individuals as much freedom as possible, not as a hammer with which to bludgeon others into submission to your will.
