Well on top of that, if you are locked up but not convicted your demand for a speedy trial may fall on deaf ears for awhile before it makes it to the proper channels. After that they can still hold you for 60 days before that trial happens... unless they find a reason to delay it, which they can do. The 60 days itself is enough to completely derail someone's life if they are innocent and have nobody to bail them out.

There were 12 Amendments proposed by the first Congress, which ten of them were ratified very soon and became the first to the tenth Amendments. One of the two pending amendments was rediscovered and ratified lately and became the 27th Amendment. This is because when these first 12 Amendments were proposed, the founding fathers forgot to set a time limit of when they need to get enough states ratification or they will be failed, hence the 27th Amendment, first proposed in 1789, was approved in 1992, it took 202 years, 7 months and 10 days to be ratified. The Congressional Apportionment Amendment is the other amendment that is still in the state of "approved by the Congress, awaiting ratification by states" it had been ratified by 11 states, last time by Kentucky in 1792. For the current 50 states of the US, this Amendment will require 27 more states to ratify it.

The Third Amendment is the reason the grievances it addresses are _historical._ Old as the Bill of Rights may be, it continues to protect us with just as much vigor as it ever did.

dude seriously. and until today i didnt even know the 22nd to 27th amendments even existed at all and really only knew the 13th-15th and 18th and 21st ones. oh and the 1st one
The first amendment also forbids the government from establishing religion. It’s literally the first clause. I don’t know why people keep skipping over that. “Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of religion, or of the press; or the right of the people to peacefully assemble, and to petition the government for redness or grievances.
It’s because the video is 8 minutes long and for entertainment. Anyone trying to actually learn about the US constitution from a video like this is a moron.
And yet the Republicans want America to be a Christian country. No way in hell that would fly. If they wanted to live in an official Christian country, they can go live in El Salvador, Argentina, Brazil or Belarus
No it’s not. I learnt all of the first 10 amendments plus a few more within a week in the school system. I’ve memorized every one and I wasn’t even in school when we went over them in class.
Stated in the constitution already but it varies on what elected government positions you are in that’s why the Supreme Court for example doesn’t have term limits because they are not elected and I agree that the people enforcing the laws of the constitution should not be elected because it would just end up being judges that are very partisan and corrupt just like politicians are but I do think they should have term limits of at least 30 years or so though
How about this... One term. wait one term before you can run again this way they have 2 year to collect campaign funds and won't need to get tax payers money.
Indeed and we think that Free Speech only applies to defense of the government. I'm sorry but the idea of free speech goes far beyond the First Amendment
No it’s about suing states in federal court not suing states in general and states have to abide by the constitution so if you sue a state let’s say for example on an unconstitutional search warrant the state would have to abide by the federal laws required in their constitution so taking them to federal court would do nothing really and states would still have to enforce federal laws in their own courts
I love how easy to understand this is! I also love how you go through each one and explain it concisely, and how the video is chaptered, so whenever I wanna look one up, I can just come back here. Thank you.
This is such a garbage video. It breaks my heart that people watch entertainment like this acting like it’s actually informative. This country just produces imbeciles while other countries have their elementary students learn calculus. The west is collapsing.
Sometimes it amazes me what we were able to get 2/3 of Congress and 3/4 of the states to agree on. I wonder if we as a country are too polarized now to pass another amendment in my lifetime.
Amendments aren't ratified often if you really think about it. 10 amendments were added at 1 time. 3 amendments were added in the immediate aftermath of the civil war. 1 amendment was simply to overturn another amendment. Not to mention America is almost 250 years old.
It's not so much polarization that no Amendment will pass again. It's due to the fact the Amendments nearly everyone can agree upon. Are Amendments that would actively "harm" sitting legislators. 87% of Americans support Congressional term limits, 79% support an age cap on federally elected officials, and 74% favor placing a mandatory retirement age on Supreme Court Justices. All three of those would be Amendments Congress, regardless of Party, has an active interest in making sure never get ratified. And the only way any Amendments will ever be made to the Constitution again would be via an Article V Convention. Which 19 of the 34 needed states have already passed resolutions calling for one. North Carolina passed a resolution in the House last year. And if it ever passes the Senate they'll be state number 20. Edit: Numbers came from Pew Research
@SteveSherman-ij5gm The Constitution was a piece of shit right from the start. I don't get people who claim it was inspired by God. The very document that proclaims that all men are born with inalienable rights that cannot be taken away then proceeds to take it away for slaves and women. The document prohibits the U.S. from having a standing military (thus, the Second Amendment's necessity to be able to raise a militia), yet we've had one for many years through a dubious legal loophole. Inspired by God, indeed.
no we will never have any more amendments because USA is too polarized rn both sides have to work together for that to happen and that is not happening.
@@SteveSherman-ij5gm Except that the Constitution clearly states that all people are born with rights, which it immediately violated by treating Blacks, Native Americans, Chinese, and Women as non-human.
It was talking about all people. Back then, majority of the world didn't regard certain races as humans. Blacks weren't regarded as humans and same with American Indians.
i'm sure everyone's got some quip they want to add to a few of these amendments and how they are presented here, but I'll just focus on one - the 17th direct election of senators did not add anything to democracy - the people had always had a house of congress to which they directly elected representatives. Rather the 17thA removed the constitutional condition that senators were appointed by state legislatures. Why does this matter? Well, think of this - why do we have 2 houses of congress, if basically they only differ in their size, length of term, and salaries? The purpose of a bicameral congress, and why certain powers and responsibilities were assigned to either the house or the senate, was so that both the people AND the states would have a representative on the federal level. The 17thA destroyed the states' ability to have representation in D.C., neutered the 2 house of congress, and muddied people's understanding of the role of their rep vs their senator to this very day.
I disagree with your assessment first because as an American I do understand how the two bodies differ in function and their respective roles, and I would be very reluctant to allow somebody else to select my state senator for me.
@@edwardpoe7323 The representatives in the Senate were not intended to represent the people, not directly; they were intended to represent the interests of the state at large, thus their appointment. This was to balance the House of Representatives, where the people are directly represented. This check and balance was intended to keep states with large populations, say New York, Florida, or California, from completely domineering the political landscape and ignoring the interests and problems of say, Rhode Island, Idaho, or Wyoming.

0:21 the primary purpose of the Second Amendment, according to the founders, is so that no government body in the country can oveerule the people's rights.
It's not the primary purpose. It is the only purpose. It identifies 2 rights that cannot ever be in fringed upon and they make it crystal clear. It is not granting anybody the right to do anything. It is forbidden the government from infringing on those 2 rights. There is no other purpose.
@@JMPK23 Better that we all get together and test that idea by stopping the government. That's why they protected those 2 rights. They saw what has been happening for the last 50 years coming and they wanted to give us the ability to stop it. And it is no coincidence that that is exactly why they have been twisting what it means for the last 50 years. They're not afraid of people owning guns. They are afraid of people rising up and stopping them when they are armed to the teeth in the form of well regulated militias. Just like the founding fathers did to the British.
@@SteveSherman-ij5gm Each and every right creates a limitation for others Like the proverb goes "My liberty stops where the liberty of somebody else's begins"
@@SteveSherman-ij5gm Like Rousseau said, "The law is a reflection of the general opinion" There's a balance to be struck between individual freedoms and general interests
It’s the foundation for our country to work and to help preserve individual rights, liberties and freedoms. Every country should adopt a constitution that outlines the rights of their citizens in my opinion.
Correction for the explanation of the 2nd amendment: The second amendment guarantees the individual right to keep and bear arms, and the states right to maintain a militia ("well regulated" is antiquated language that means something entirely different today). The individual right is not earmarked by "recreation, hunting, defense". It is an unlimited right. The 2nd presumptively protects everything from knives and computer viruses, to tanks and fighter jets (supported by various founding documents, particularly in reference to privateers and privately owned battleships). The 2nd also presumptively protects the carriage of said arms, provided you are not carrying them in a manner (as outlined in the common law of Northampton, one of many founding documents) that is dangerous and unusual, as in a manner which would reasonably create fear of great bodily harm. The constitution, in particular the 2nd, does NOT disbar peoples rights based on immigration status, criminal history, or any other reason. The 2nd does NOT allow for delays in the exercise of the right, as outlined by the language "shall not be infringed" There is more nuance here, but I want to keep this as short as possible.
Isn't it true that "the common law of Northampton", although often cited, when research has drilled down deeply (and anything firearms/Second Amendment related is usually of intense interest), there is no "there" there? That the source document cannot be located or confirmed? If so, then the citation itself is invalid. If anything, confirming this is the case -- maybe by a simple "despite diligent research, we have been unable to confirm the oft-cited 'common law of Northampton' is a legitimate and true citation; that we have found no evidence that it existed within recognized scholarship." NYSRPA vs. Bruen, Heller, and McDonald would experienced far fewer interpretive perversions if Northampton's legitimacy had been challenged early on.
You blew your own foundational argument when you tried to cherry pick the well regulated militia language saying it means something completely different today. Using your logic all you can have is a flintlock. Dismissed
@@edwardpoe7323 Not only is the individual right to keep and bear arms separate from the states right to maintain a ‘well regulated’ militia, but your technological argument falls flat on its face when considering semiautomatics like the Ghiradoni rifle and repeating arms like the Pickle Gun existed well before the time of the founding. The well regulated militia of the time period was *literally* any able bodied gun owner, and during early America, as part of maintaining said militia, local governments would survey local gun owners to ensure they had a rifle capable of firing the caliber of ball that the local armory stored (typically .50 or .55 I think) in the event the ‘well regulated militia’ (any able bodied gun owner) was needed to rise. This is not cherry picked, go read DC v Heller. As for supporting recognized founding documents, see below "I ask who are the militia? They consist now of the whole people, except a few public officers." - George Mason, Address to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 4, 1788 "Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of." - James Madison, Federalist No. 46, January 29, 1788 "The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. A well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and most natural defense of a free country." - James Madison, I Annals of Congress 434, June 8, 1789 "...the ultimate authority, wherever the derivative may be found, resides in the people alone..." - James Madison, Federalist No. 46, January 29, 1788 “A militia when properly formed are in fact the people themselves…and include, according to the past and general usuage of the states, all men capable of bearing arms… "To preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them." - Richard Henry Lee, Federal Farmer No. 18, January 25, 1788 "What, Sir, is the use of a militia? It is to prevent the establishment of a standing army, the bane of liberty .... Whenever Governments mean to invade the rights and liberties of the people, they always attempt to destroy the militia, in order to raise an army upon their ruins." - Rep. Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts, I Annals of Congress 750, August 17, 1789 "[I]f circumstances should at any time oblige the government to form an army of any magnitude that army can never be formidable to the liberties of the people while there is a large body of citizens, little, if at all, inferior to them in discipline and the use of arms, who stand ready to defend their own rights and those of their fellow-citizens. This appears to me the only substitute that can be devised for a standing army, and the best possible security against it, if it should exist." - Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 28, January 10, 1788

However, anything said before is inadmissible in court, which is why they say it the moment of arrest because most people say dumb shit during an arrest.

Could you name a couple of your own personal favorite examples of the gov and companies exploiting the amendments?
There were 12 Amendments proposed by the first Congress, which ten of them were ratified very soon and became the first to the tenth Amendments. One of the two pending amendments was rediscovered and ratified lately and became the 27th Amendment. This is because when these first 12 Amendments were proposed, the founding fathers forgot to set a time limit of when they need to get enough states ratification or they will be failed, hence the 27th Amendment, first proposed in 1789, was approved in 1992, it took 202 years, 7 months and 10 days to be ratified. The Congressional Apportionment Amendment is the other amendment that is still in the state of "approved by the Congress, awaiting ratification by states" it had been ratified by 11 states, last time by Kentucky in 1792. For the current 50 states of the US, this Amendment will require 27 more states to ratify it.
The last Amendment you said, is no longer enforceable. It would have to go through the entire process again in order to pass.

The Third Amendment is the reason the grievances it addresses are _historical._ Old as the Bill of Rights may be, it continues to protect us with just as much vigor as it ever did.
Cops invade homes without warrants all the time. The 3a is not being effectively enforced
There were lawsuits against our government recently on the grounds of the government violating the 3rd amendment by making it illegal to remove occupants from your property during the pandemic. One of the only times the 3rd amendment was ever used legally.
Especially in the form of the second ammendment, it protects our lives and rights every day.
@@kidfox3971 The First Amendment is the one that protects our other rights, not the Second. Without speech, assembly, and petition, you will be powerless when the government decides to take the Second Amendment away from you through legislation.

The first amendment also forbids the government from establishing religion. It’s literally the first clause. I don’t know why people keep skipping over that.
“Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of religion, or of the press; or the right of the people to peacefully assemble, and to petition the government for redness or grievances.
The third clause should read, "or abridging the freedom of speech"
christians aren't exactly the smartest
It’s because the video is 8 minutes long and for entertainment. Anyone trying to actually learn about the US constitution from a video like this is a moron.
And yet the Republicans want America to be a Christian country. No way in hell that would fly. If they wanted to live in an official Christian country, they can go live in El Salvador, Argentina, Brazil or Belarus

This country (or should I say corporation) will destroy itself before that ever happens
Stated in the constitution already but it varies on what elected government positions you are in that’s why the Supreme Court for example doesn’t have term limits because they are not elected and I agree that the people enforcing the laws of the constitution should not be elected because it would just end up being judges that are very partisan and corrupt just like politicians are but I do think they should have term limits of at least 30 years or so though
How about this... One term. wait one term before you can run again this way they have 2 year to collect campaign funds and won't need to get tax payers money.
Term limits wont work, unfortunately corporation will just prop up the next person that will serve their interests, and it would cost them less too.

Sometimes it amazes me what we were able to get 2/3 of Congress and 3/4 of the states to agree on. I wonder if we as a country are too polarized now to pass another amendment in my lifetime.
Amendments aren't ratified often if you really think about it. 10 amendments were added at 1 time. 3 amendments were added in the immediate aftermath of the civil war. 1 amendment was simply to overturn another amendment. Not to mention America is almost 250 years old.
one side will eventually lose and we will achieve a new normal for the next 50 years until this happens again
It's not so much polarization that no Amendment will pass again. It's due to the fact the Amendments nearly everyone can agree upon. Are Amendments that would actively "harm" sitting legislators. 87% of Americans support Congressional term limits, 79% support an age cap on federally elected officials, and 74% favor placing a mandatory retirement age on Supreme Court Justices. All three of those would be Amendments Congress, regardless of Party, has an active interest in making sure never get ratified. And the only way any Amendments will ever be made to the Constitution again would be via an Article V Convention. Which 19 of the 34 needed states have already passed resolutions calling for one. North Carolina passed a resolution in the House last year. And if it ever passes the Senate they'll be state number 20.

@SteveSherman-ij5gm The Constitution was a piece of shit right from the start. I don't get people who claim it was inspired by God. The very document that proclaims that all men are born with inalienable rights that cannot be taken away then proceeds to take it away for slaves and women. The document prohibits the U.S. from having a standing military (thus, the Second Amendment's necessity to be able to raise a militia), yet we've had one for many years through a dubious legal loophole. Inspired by God, indeed.

i'm sure everyone's got some quip they want to add to a few of these amendments and how they are presented here, but I'll just focus on one - the 17th direct election of senators did not add anything to democracy - the people had always had a house of congress to which they directly elected representatives. Rather the 17thA removed the constitutional condition that senators were appointed by state legislatures.
Why does this matter? Well, think of this - why do we have 2 houses of congress, if basically they only differ in their size, length of term, and salaries? The purpose of a bicameral congress, and why certain powers and responsibilities were assigned to either the house or the senate, was so that both the people AND the states would have a representative on the federal level. The 17thA destroyed the states' ability to have representation in D.C., neutered the 2 house of congress, and muddied people's understanding of the role of their rep vs their senator to this very day.
I came looking for this comment. Well said sir.
@@thewanderer7307 Same bro. Repeal the 17th amendment.
I disagree with your assessment first because as an American I do understand how the two bodies differ in function and their respective roles, and I would be very reluctant to allow somebody else to select my state senator for me.
@@edwardpoe7323 The representatives in the Senate were not intended to represent the people, not directly; they were intended to represent the interests of the state at large, thus their appointment. This was to balance the House of Representatives, where the people are directly represented. This check and balance was intended to keep states with large populations, say New York, Florida, or California, from completely domineering the political landscape and ignoring the interests and problems of say, Rhode Island, Idaho, or Wyoming.

0:21 the primary purpose of the Second Amendment, according to the founders, is so that no government body in the country can oveerule the people's rights.
It's not the primary purpose.

It is not granting anybody the right to do anything.

Correction for the explanation of the 2nd amendment:
The second amendment guarantees the individual right to keep and bear arms, and the states right to maintain a militia ("well regulated" is antiquated language that means something entirely different today). The individual right is not earmarked by "recreation, hunting, defense". It is an unlimited right. The 2nd presumptively protects everything from knives and computer viruses, to tanks and fighter jets (supported by various founding documents, particularly in reference to privateers and privately owned battleships). The 2nd also presumptively protects the carriage of said arms, provided you are not carrying them in a manner (as outlined in the common law of Northampton, one of many founding documents) that is dangerous and unusual, as in a manner which would reasonably create fear of great bodily harm. The constitution, in particular the 2nd, does NOT disbar peoples rights based on immigration status, criminal history, or any other reason. The 2nd does NOT allow for delays in the exercise of the right, as outlined by the language "shall not be infringed"
There is more nuance here, but I want to keep this as short as possible.
Isn't it true that "the common law of Northampton", although often cited, when research has drilled down deeply (and anything firearms/Second Amendment related is usually of intense interest), there is no "there" there? That the source document cannot be located or confirmed? If so, then the citation itself is invalid. If anything, confirming this is the case -- maybe by a simple "despite diligent research, we have been unable to confirm the oft-cited 'common law of Northampton' is a legitimate and true citation; that we have found no evidence that it existed within recognized scholarship." NYSRPA vs. Bruen, Heller, and McDonald would experienced far fewer interpretive perversions if Northampton's legitimacy had been challenged early on.
You blew your own foundational argument when you tried to cherry pick the well regulated militia language saying it means something completely different today. Using your logic all you can have is a flintlock. Dismissed
@@edwardpoe7323 Not only is the individual right to keep and bear arms separate from the states right to maintain a ‘well regulated’ militia, but your technological argument falls flat on its face when considering semiautomatics like the Ghiradoni rifle and repeating arms like the Pickle Gun existed well before the time of the founding. The well regulated militia of the time period was *literally* any able bodied gun owner, and during early America, as part of maintaining said militia, local governments would survey local gun owners to ensure they had a rifle capable of firing the caliber of ball that the local armory stored (typically .50 or .55 I think) in the event the ‘well regulated militia’ (any able bodied gun owner) was needed to rise. This is not cherry picked, go read DC v Heller. As for supporting recognized founding documents, see below
"I ask who are the militia? They consist now of the whole people, except a few public officers." - George Mason, Address to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 4, 1788
"Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of." - James Madison, Federalist No. 46, January 29, 1788
"The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. A well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and most natural defense of a free country." - James Madison, I Annals of Congress 434, June 8, 1789
"...the ultimate authority, wherever the derivative may be found, resides in the people alone..." - James Madison, Federalist No. 46, January 29, 1788
“A militia when properly formed are in fact the people themselves…and include, according to the past and general usuage of the states, all men capable of bearing arms… "To preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them." - Richard Henry Lee, Federal Farmer No. 18, January 25, 1788
"What, Sir, is the use of a militia? It is to prevent the establishment of a standing army, the bane of liberty .... Whenever Governments mean to invade the rights and liberties of the people, they always attempt to destroy the militia, in order to raise an army upon their ruins." - Rep. Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts, I Annals of Congress 750, August 17, 1789
"[I]f circumstances should at any time oblige the government to form an army of any magnitude that army can never be formidable to the liberties of the people while there is a large body of citizens, little, if at all, inferior to them in discipline and the use of arms, who stand ready to defend their own rights and those of their fellow-citizens. This appears to me the only substitute that can be devised for a standing army, and the best possible security against it, if it should exist." - Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 28, January 10, 1788

As an independant, I find alot of this guy's content to be very good, I wonder if he will take the time to chime in on this and fill us in on his opinion?
@@theorangeheadedfella Considering they were pretty much fighting against what they called tyranny, it's not shocking.
The 1st amendment exists to allow you to live without fear of government oppression
The 2nd amendment exists to ensure that the 1st is followed.
Incredibly important video
19th amendment is what got us in the situation that we are in now.
Lmaoo
19th amendment should be amended
As an American this is essential information to me
8th amendment needs to be revisited. Still alot of folks in prison for no real reason other then slave labor
False
Why are we not taught this in school?
@@danyaelgarcia I did but just the ammendments written by the founding. None of the newer ones.
god bless america
This was a brief but well explained video about our Constitutional rights.
Thanks for making this.
*First and Second Amendment exists*
Immediately all Democrats...
_" Well, I don't like that..."_
2nd amendment doesn't mention hunting. In it's place, it mentions against a Tyrannical government, and "It shall not be infringed upon."
It has been severely crippled by the feds and several states since 1934.
@@minddevastation508 it doesn't say tyrannical government, the founding fathers said that plenty but the 2nd Amendment doesn't spicifically say that. Its implied in the phrase "free state" meaning a free state rather than a tyrannical state, but it doesn't actually say tyrannical.
Literally either a lie or a flash of retardation. You can read the amendment for free online….
….assuming you can read
@@Sarcasmarkus My guy...it was written by men who had just overthrown a tyrannical government and knew **with absolute certainty** that it would need to happen again.
The 3a today is also about cops. During the 18th century the colonial police were the redcoats
American Needs To Enforce The 8th Amendment More!
Yk not all people get bond right? There is a risk they have to deal with in the person fleeing
This was excellent thanks so much! Not even American and obviously it’s not perfect but this was beautiful!
One of my adult education teachers back in Saint Louis served in the military and talked about how if you're old enough to serve in the military and die for your country then you should be able to drink. After a few years I honestly think this is a very grey topic. You should have the freedom to drink if you are old enough to be in the military but there's an undeniable fact that eighteen year olds in general are pretty stupid and could get into trouble given the opportunity.
Only solution is to raise the age limit.
i honestly think that 21 is too young for anything given that science has proven that the human brain is NOT full matured until the age of 26. i would be OK if the age for everything gets bumped up to that age for that reason
They vote blue, which is why they want 16 year olds to vote now...
Which is why lowering the voting age to 18 was stupid. The 26th Amendment should be repealed.
You're not wrong, but if I'm considered old enough to die for my country then hand me a beer.
Bro we need to use the 25th amendment right now!
And get Kamala? Fuck no
Love these videos! One bit of feedback, it would have been cool to see the years they were written in as well.
*God Bless America*
Amen.
UA-cam algo not helping as much anymore, but we still support The Paint Explainer! 💙
The background music is the national anthem and I love it😂
Thank you. This has been the best and most accurate explanation I’ve seen of our bill of rights.
Also, I made sure I let the ADs play through completely for you. Thanks for the video.
The most important is no doubt the 2nd amendment, you bear arms that you can use to protect and take back all your other rights. Repeal the NFA.
the nfa? Do you want average people to have MACHINE GUNS????
@@MarcTelangYes!
@@MarcTelangthe 2nd Amendment doesn't give people their rights, its a ban on government from making any laws infringing on what is supposed to be an inalienable right.
@@MarcTelangyes.
ok this is the limit, this is something that the police don't even have and you want random people to have it, there is no situation where this would be useful except for mass murder, what do you think will happen? you think there will be a zombie apocalypse trying to break down your door? when would you need a machine gun? i would say all these replies are a joke but i don't think that is true anymore given the number. at least some people are saying it unironically. a century from now people will be complaining that the right to have a nuclear bomb is an "inalienable right"

@@MillionThingsMoreImportant Lol can't take a joke?
The 4th amendment has been effectively removed, at least in my state. Police can search your car during a traffic stop without your permission or a warrant. All they have to say is they 'smelled weed' or 'thought something was suspicious'. Things that can't be proven or disputed when watching body cameras
It’s called probable cause and it’s existed long before cars existed.
Don't even get me started on civil forfeiture. I canNOT believe that's still going on 20 years later.
I've been looking for a video like this for a while; Thank you:)
The 10th is why Roe v. Wade was, correctly, struck down. Left to the individual states to decide.
Thank you.
This is exactly why the abortion issue shouldn't even be on the table as far as electing a president goes.
It should never have been a topic for the presidential debates either.
So should we compile a list of all the channels based on or copying this one?
