Amen.

Freedom of Religion was never meant to mean that it was NOT to be mentioned in public.

And I carry a little Constitution/Declaration of Independence (stuck in my holster!) around with me just to prove certain things when the discussion comes up.

What’s IN the Booklet:

1. Freedom of Speech
2. Freedom of Religion
3. Freedom of the Press
4. Freedom to peaceably Assemble
5. Freedom to carry firearms
6. Freedom from the quartering of soldiers in my home
7. Freedom from unwarranted search and seizure
8. Freedom not to incriminate myself
9. Right to Life
10. Right to Liberty
11. Right to pursue happiness

What’s NOT in there (neither document)

1. Right to an abortion
2. Right to own a house
3. Right to not be offended
4. Right to taxpayer-funded healthcare
5. Right to taxpayer-funded housing
6. Right to taxpayer-funded education
7. Right to taxpayer-funded college loans with no need to repay
8. Right to a cell phone
9. Right to the Internet
10. Right to change my gender at taxpayers expense
11. Right to force other people to celebrate my sinful lifestyle
12. Right to take from others if I like what I see and want it for myself
13. Right to enter the country illegally and take a job away from someone who lives here

I mean...I am not a Constitutional Scholar, but I can read.

LOL!

9. Right to the Internet

Should read "Right to Rule the Internet". That's what they want.

From Federalist 84 (Hamilton):

I go further and affirm that bills of rights, in the sense and to the extent in which they are contended for, are not only unnecessary in the proposed Constitution but would even be dangerous. They would contain various exceptions to powers which are not granted; and, on this very account, would afford a colorable pretext to claim more than were granted.

He was half-right.

There should have been a bill of limitations and enumerated rights.

Sadly, Amendment IX opens the door for more claims of “rights.”
