You ruined everything by actually reading the entire Constitution, and the Federalist Papers too.
Madison, Hamilton and Jay just jawboning on and on about the executive enforcing the laws, having a nation of laws instead of men, elected governments having the power to levy taxes and suppress insurrections - and all that boring grownup stuff.
It's so much cooler to fantasize about doing whatever you want and then going on a rampage when someone tells you there are consequences.
our forefathers would have started shooting 20 years ago.
Get off your high horse on the freakin’ law/legal aspect of it. You might have an argument that held water if the government operated with any sense of fairness or actual justice, but it is so BLATANTLY obvious that the law currently exists merely to satisfy their whims, and pigeon hole us into submission, that you’re defense of it merely makes you sound like a gutless bootlicker...
