" If I believed my constitutional rights were being infringed, I would take it to a federal court."

You have to be arrested and tossed in jail for the opportunity, like the guy in this story.

"When you encounter such laws, you should challenge them. That is what most Americans do."

I'll challenge them wherever, and that's what I'm doing now.

Not at all. If for example, I was denied a license to carry a concealed weapon, I could sue in federal court, under both the 2d and 14th Amendments. Would I be successful. Depends, but many perceived rights infringement issues do not require arrest.

Hopefully not with me. I'm in no position to change anything.
