excuse me mr andrew, i am just a kitten and not a big important governor like you and we have only done 2 units of social studies in school, but when you say “the vaccination card opens doors and allows you to participate in life” i get little perplexed.
i thought it was the bill of rights that did that.
used to be the constitution prescribed what the federal gov't can do. The rest was left up to the states
bill of rights list what the feds cannot touch, which is why nyc gets away with banning handgun among innocent law abiding citizens but ask any one and you can get one.....
we'll see if this unpopular regime tries to "control" guns....
I think SCOTUS ruled that the states are incorporated into the bill of rights. they get away with it anyway.
“But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain - that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case it is unfit to exist.”
I get your larger point. But the Bill of Rights does not grant any rights, it merely acknowledges them. This is an essential distinction.

this ought to be good for another few thousand departures
