Which is why we go to the writings and words of those who wrote the Constitution.

I'd say conservatives are the most guilty of this when it comes to freedom of religion.

NOWHERE in the constitution is God, Jesus, the Bible, or a Christian nation mentioned. The only two mentions of religion are the establishment clause and the banning of religious tests. Yet Republicans insist on whittling away at both.

Because ANTI-gunners do NOT read what the WRITERS ACTUALLY HAD IN MIND.

It is ALL there in black and white, written so even an 8th grader can understand.
Apparently not.
The supreme court has had to interpret the amendments more than once.
That means people did not understand the written words, and they were far from being 8th graders.

For example?

Do you understand what that interpreting is supposed to be?
What does the Constitution say compared the issue in question.

It's that simple and the COnstitution is simply written as well.
There are no hard to understand nor any hidden mysteries within it either.

No, but we need a Constitutional amendment that says the government can place reasonable restrictions on putting others at risk of a dangerous virus, because some people just don't get it.

Is it ok for fed gov to fine a co. for 'misinformation'? We need clarification. And asap:

The Health Misinformation Act will be introduced to the Senate on Thursday by Amy Klobuchar:

- Internet platforms such as Facebook and Google will be required to take down vaccine misinformation or held liable
-A court would adjudicate any liability
-directs the Department of Health and Human Services to issue guidelines on what constitutes health misinformation.

You can't work or produce are not reasonable restrictions.
That is what really hurt us with the current virus.
