I'm against loss of liberty for anyone. Base your inferences on that. I am not against any part of the bill of rights. I am against actions on the part of the government which tend to violate it. I do have trouble with some later amendments. I particularly have trouble with policies which require an amendment where the amendment has yet to take place. For example: The constitution was properly amended to allow for prohibition whether I agree with the amendment or not. It has yet to be amended to allow for the war on drugs. The government is our servant, not our master. How can a free man's rights flow from the servant? It can't unless the servant is really the master. How can a servant be allowed to be armed when the master isn't? It can't. Unless it is really the master....etc. Rights that flow from an amendment are merely privileges granted by the master that can be rescinded at any time.
