We have to quibble. Our federal Constitution secures Due Process.Nice story bro,The right wing claims natural and individual rights are in our federal Constitution.I was reading an article Since 2007, the DEA has taken $3.2 billion in cash from people not charged with a crime
$3.2 billion in cash seized from people who were never charged with a crime? How is this legal or constitutional? And since the departments who do the seizure get to KEEP THE MONEY, how is there not some serious judicial oversight?
There are few things more wrong than for law enforcement to be able to simply confiscate someone's money or property because they insist it is crime related, but not have to show any crime.
Individual rights ARE in our US Constitution, numbnuts. Next time you want to talk about your 1st amendment rights, you don't have to check which state you are in, now do you?
States have their own equivalents to our federal First Amendment.
So? The US Constitution guarantees those rights to every citizen. And a state constitution can ONLY guarantee them within the bounds of that one state. The US Constitution guarantees them in the entire USA.
I also think it is hilarious that you first say "The right wing claims natural and individual rights are in our federal Constitution.".
Then you say "States have their own equivalents to our federal First Amendment". Just because the states have them too does not mean the US Constitution does not have them. And the US Constitution covers all 50 states, not just 1 state.
