We're supposed to have the right to bear arms - yet governments tell us what guns we can and cannot buy, and when and where we can carry them.
We're supposed to have freedom from searches without due process - yet the government can set up roadblocks to check our blood alcohol level without due process.
We're supposed to have a federal government limited by the Tenth Amendment - which is basically a dead letter unless it serves a particular pet cause by the Federalist wing of the Supreme Court - which would be fine and dandy except that same wing almost never saw a violation of the Fourth Amendment that they couldn't condone.
So don't go looking to the Constitution for your freedoms. The federal government sure as heck doesn't any longer.
Good (but depressing) post.
There is a reason why we have the right to bear arms you know.
