What we need after a new President is an amendment to the Civil Rights Laws. Any entity/person or persons who denies the rights of U.S. Citizens under the U.S. Constitution(specifically the Bill of Rights) can be charged.

Individuals who are government employees( including Public education officials of Schools, Colleges, etc. can be fined and/or imprisoned( in GITMO).

This would also apply to all of the rights(including those defined in the Second and Fourth amendments). That should settle this crap once and for all.

Absolutely not!

Think of the ramifications of such a law.

I own a private business and catch my employee telling customers not shop at my store but to shop at my competitors store. I fire him and thanks to your amendment to the Civil Rights laws, I get charged for violating his free speech rights.

I own a private business that prepares pork products. I have an employee that just converted to Islam or Judaism and refuses to touch the pork food stuffs. I fire them because they are no longer able to or simply refuse to do the job for which they were hired. I get charged for infringing on their exercise of religion.

I refuse to allow an employee to carry a weapon on my private property. I get charged.

I dock a workers pay without a jury trial. I get charged.

The possibility of abuse is limitless.
