The "People" protected by the Bill of Rights are "Of the United States", and not "Of Some Other Country".

How can you not get this by now? The "people" who created the Constitution are "of the United States", and not "of some other country." How hard can this be?

I can just see you trying to tell a police officer that since you didn't put a stop sign up, it doesn't "cover" you.

That has nothing to do with the subject here.

Again, you fail to understand what "cover" means, in the context in which I use it.

If I was an illegal alien, on US Soil, and I cheered when the World Trade Center blew up, I'd lose my freedom to express joy, in this country, because I would not be covered by the Bill of Rights. I would be out of here, just like those Chinese reporters, and Bob Barr would be whining that I was treated unjustly and unconstitutionally, and he would be as wrong as you are.
