@markmccaughrean Now you see that the First Amendment is just a lame excuse for dumb people to cowardly attack everyone else and the Second Amendment is brandished for personal egoistic reasons but never used when it is needed.
In a nutshell, more often than not, Americans invoking the Constitution couldn't care less about it.
@dom @markmccaughrean
What's scary is that it's become clear that a lot of rank-and-file right-wing citizens see the Constitution the same way they see the Bible: an infallible divine document that is nonetheless not for *their* lowly eyes to read, but for the "priesthood" to interpret for them in ways that point towards cruelty and hate.
