Is Our Constitution Gone?





The 1st Amendment to the United States Constitution

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

HR 347 does restrict free speech, there is no doubt about it but what most don’t realize is this is what happens every time we get a big government, , their first order of business is to take away your Constitutional rights, their first order of business is to take away your Constitutional rights.  

In my lifetime there has only been two presidents who brought our country close to being a dictatorship, the first was President Richard Nixon (Republican) who first signed Public Law 112-283, the father of HR 347 and President Barack Obama who signed HR 347. Both these laws violate the US Constitution’s 1st Amendment, and both of these presidents violated every law they could and can get away with but where is the congress? If you look at the vote in the house, only three congressmen stood up for what was right; Justin Amash (R) from Michigan, Keith Ellison (D) from Minnesota, and Paul Broun (R) from Georgia. The other 339 congressmen voted for it or refused to vote which is just as bad. What really tees me off is every one of my representatives voted for it; I can’t even say one didn’t vote; but it gets worse.

I am a big backer of our Border Patrol and usually a backer of Homeland Security but as I said before, anytime you have a big government, their first order of business is to take away your Constitutional rights. Homeland Security has created a, ”Constitution-Free” Zones, where you have no US Constitutional rights. The 1st and 4th Amendments according to them have no standing so they can search you, detain you, and seize your personal items without a warrant or probable cause; I thought this was America, home of the free!  What about the Freedom of the Press?

A reporter could go to jail for reporting the truth and refusing to give up her sources. Jana Winter refuses to name the confidential sources cited in an article she authored about Colorado movie theater shooter, James Holmes. Nothing she wrote was false; they just don’t want the public to know.  Colorado has a long history of violating freedom of speech, if it doesn’t conform to what they want to hear they shut you up. No one had this problem when the New York Times printed how we were killing 100 Al -Qaeda's leaders every month even though it compromised National Security and put our troops in harms way. The biggest problem was the liberal press didn’t even want to report on this because it wasn’t a liberal reporter. What other violations can we find?

  1. President Obama hasn’t submitted a budget it four years which is mandated by the Constitution.

  1. The Independent Payment Advisory Board (a.k.a. “The Death Panel”) with their decisions which automatically become law without going through Congress and are only overridden by a three-fifths majority vote in the Senate.

  1. In April President Obama drafted an executive order requiring businesses to disclose independent expenditures on federal elections if they had federal contracts (which means if you give to any party but his you would receive no more federal contracts, it’s illegal and goes against Citizen United decision made by the supreme court).

  1. At the White House, 54 people were arrested for the worse violation on earth; Praying.

Now what did the US Constitution and the 1st Amendment say?

The 1st Amendment to the United States Constitution

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

When our government and president can violate every Amendment in the constitution or pick and choose which they want to follow; the US Constitution is forfeited. Our president refuses to enforce the laws on the books. I don’t care what party you claim but if you back circumventing the US Constitution then you need to leave our country. This is just to name a few. How much destruction does our country need to endure before people will stand up for what is right? Do we need to loose our freedom before we will wake up? That is where we are headed.
