Funny thing about the 14th Amendment; it was never properly passed. See this.
Congressional records even indicate this, though I've misplaced my reference to indicate where.
If your going to make up rights under the 14th amendment’s irresponsible and undefinable “ privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States” clause.
Then I’m afraid no state can abridge my privilege to steal what I like from you, nor my immunity from prosecution.
For that matter i could claim i have the privilege as a citizen of “the united states” to order you to do my bidding.
The radical nutcases that wrote the 14th amendment were the same people who just Finnish destroying the republic by waging war upon the self-government principle upon which it was founded.
What kind of self respecting burglar steals “$3,500 worth of candlesticks and cutlery” from a home somebody like Breyer?
This coincidence smacks of a typical Leftist self inflicted “crime” , designed to “raise awareness” of his perceived need for additional protection for federal jurists.
Interestingly enough, his campaign was supposedly sparked by the death of Judge Roll in Tucson, when Rep. Giffords was shot; yet the judge was not a picked target, nor even expected to be there. Unless Breyer is asking for Secret Service details to shepherd judges and justices around 24/7, ‘extra protection’ would not have prevented that shooting.
That is precisely what this buffoon wants. Needless to say, there’s no chance he’s going to get it.
Dont jump to conclusions.
Breyer may assume that the body guards use of the weapon he carries is limited to the defense of Breyer alone and that any use of it for defense of the body guards life would be illegal.
