I specifically looked it up in my pocket Constitution that I got from the Lions Club, before posting anything. I’ve got it right here by my computer. It’s got the Declaration of Independence printed before the Constitution, and it says “unalienable”. If there’s a typo, it’s from the Lions Club’s printing.

Butter, the man is a fool. Paying attention to him only makes us dumber. Disregard anything he has to say as not worthy of response. The only exception should be efforts to shoo him away.

This literary usage by Jefferson is correct, and has been remarked on for centuries, and leave it to this fool to attempt to correct what is actually on the document.

I wouldn't waste one nanosecond thinking anything he says might be correct. If it's coming from him, it is likely to be dead wrong. You just can't get that stupid without willful determination.

As a point of interest, Jefferson used “inalienable” in the Declaration of Independence
