Where the fuck are the, "Mah rights!" people now that the government is actually trampling on the constitution?
You're focusing too much on the "rights" and not enough on the "Mah." Not "Our rights."
It was never about universal rights. They were pretty clear about them caring specifically and only about their rights.
Where the fuck are the, “Mah rights!” people now that the government is actually trampling on the constitution?
Basically: "don't tread on me, tread on them!'
Deep-throating government boot-leather to clean off any leftover shreds and debris from said trampling.
Off starching their white hoods.
Never gave a fuck about the Constitution ever. Just wanted the ability to say and do hateful shit without repercussions.
Well you see "Mah Rights" are only for "us whites"

It's called thought crime.
The two-page memo, which was obtained by the Associated Press, does not allege any criminal conduct by Khalil, a legal permanent US resident and graduate student who served as spokesperson for campus activists last year during large demonstrations against Israel’s treatment of Palestinians and the war in Gaza. Rather, Rubio wrote Khalil could be expelled for his beliefs. He said that while Khalil’s activities were “otherwise lawful”, letting him remain in the country would undermine “US policy to combat antisemitism around the world and in the United States, in addition to efforts to protect Jewish students from harassment and violence in the United States”.
The Thought Police have officially arrived and been christened in their duties... 🙄 🤡 🖕 🖕
"Christened" definitely being the operative word.
I'm pretty sure the 1st amendment nullifies this argument.
There’s a school of thought out there where only citizens have the full rights granted by the constitution…
Meanwhile there’s no such thing as precedent or rule of law…
The Constitution does not support that school of thought. It is very clear, that the rights it affords are universal and apply to everyone in the country. It says nothing about being a citizen or not.
It does not. Neither does it support the legal theories that led to Jan 6. But here we are.
Tell that to the moron MAGA supporters. They keep saying that the US Constitution is only for US citizens, no one else.
I guess they don’t know about, “WE THE PEOPLE”.
Don’t see the word “citizen” in the first amendment.
Spoiler: even illegal immigrants are entitled to due process.
It's uh, likely why the word "due" is in the phrase.
That "school of thought" is just flat-out wrong. The Bill of Rights doesn't say what rights people have; it says what Congress cannot do. When Congress can't do it at all, who it can't do it to is irrelevant.
You mean the white house toilet paper?
The 1st amendment is only effective if you have a government and a court that will enforce it.
We don't have that here in America.
In normal times I’d agree, however these times are anything but normal.
Since we're just making up rules now... New rule...
Men with orange skin who are over 77 years of age and who happen to "have bone spurs" are now required to be greeted by a kick to their balls each time a new person enters the room.
Punishing us for our thoughts is clearly established as the job of the church. This is a violation of separation of church and state.
with presidents going to church after being appointment that ship has sailed long time ago.
If ONLY he Said that Nazis LOVED Jews instead of STOP KILLING KIDS he would be a Free American!
Expelled for believing that we shouldn't do genocide?
It's crazy isn't it?
They deported people in the past for leftist beliefs and also had their citizenship stripped from them for such...
