I thought the constitution's headstone was marked October 26, 2001.

October 7, 2001 and October 26, 2001 were bad days for the constitution.

October is a bad month for American institutions. I'd peg the mortal wounding of the myth surrounding Capitalism to October 3, 2008. The first near-death experience was October 24, 1929, and hinted again October 19, 1987.

I keep hearing in my head about all the wars to protect my freedoms, and all the blood that has to be spilled to save me an my country, but from within is our greatest threat.

There was always a chance before, because no matter what law was passed, there was always the supreme court to sort it out. But the Roberts court has put our constitution to rest. He gives our civil rights away to corporations. There is no other recourse within our structure of government anymore. The elections are a fraud, the legislative branch are most all whores, and those that aren't are like citizens who live in the stroll of the whores. And the Executive is now a power hungry monster trying to grab what powers it can squeeze into a definition. And now the final nail is the Supreme Court.

I'm running out of ideas...This is really serious. The only right left in the bill of rights is the right not to have soldiers quartered in your homes...That's it!
