[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good on OP.  Democrats can’t stand when it when you exercise your Constitutional rights.  They like to take away the rights of law abiding citizens while giving more rights to criminals. On top of that they tax you more for the privilege.  If democratic officials don’t enforce the law and do their jobs wrt public safety, what do you expect citizens to do? Allow criminals to keep teeing off on them?  Law abiding citizens wouldn’t need CCW if democrats enforced the law, jailed criminals, and put the rights of law abiding citizens over thugs and miscreants in DC. [/quote]

Where are abortions listed in the constitution?

Just admit it- you can’t stand the fact a citizen demands to exercise their constitutional right. [/quote]

I’m fine with 2A “rights” - with limitations.

And just because I have a uterus doesn’t mean I don’t have “certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

14th Amendment 
“No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

liberty
The term “liberty” appears in the due process clauses of both the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments of the Constitution. As used in the Constitution, liberty means freedom from arbitrary and unreasonable restraint upon an individual. Freedom from restraint refers to more than just physical restraint, but also the [b]freedom to act according to one's own will. [/b]On numerous occasions the Supreme Court has sought to explain what liberty means and what it encompasses. For example:

The Supreme Court in Meyer v. Nebraska stated “[liberty] denotes not merely [b]freedom from bodily restraint[/b] but also the [b]right of the individual to contract, to engage in any of the common occupations of life, to acquire useful knowledge, to marry, establish a home and bring up children, to worship God according to the dictates of his own conscience, and generally to enjoy those privileges long recognized at common law as essential to the orderly pursuit of happiness by free men[/b].”
In Bolling v. Sharpe, the Supreme Court stated “[liberty] is not confined to mere freedom from bodily restraint. Liberty under law extends to the full range of conduct which the individual is free to pursue, and it cannot be restricted except for a proper governmental objective.”
In Ingraham v. Wright, the Supreme Court stated liberty includes “freedom from bodily restraint and punishment” and “a right to be free from and to obtain judicial relief, for unjustified intrusions on personal security.”
