1st Amendment - gone - all real political discourse is completely removed from 90% of the public already
2nd Amendment - gone - the government has a monopoly of power in firearms and tech. We have mainly semi-automatic rifles, they have microwaves on helicopters
3rd Amendment - gone - the government can occupy any residence, as well as confiscate it with civil asset forfeiture, eminent domain, thru the epa, thru land rights, thru many other methods
4th Amendment - gone - tech spying
5th Amendment - gone - NDAA, Patriot Act can torture, also rumors of police blacksites all over the US
6th Amendment - gone - Flynn, Stone, Trump, etc are examples of unfair trials
7th Amendment - gone - Juries are stacked
8th Amendment - gone - Laywer fees are the new method of persecution, you'll be forced to take a plea when you run out of money
9th Amendment - gone - all rights go to the government, not to the people
10th Amendment - gone - States are taken over with full vote fraud, laws passed that are anti-constitutional are left in place, agencies make 'regulations' that are followed as law that are unconstitutional

Interesting.
I just pulled up the Constitution all those amendments are still there.
Maybe the problem your having is that nobody is willing to do what it takes to activate those Amendments?
Some dude in the past wrote something about the Tree of Liberty needing watering or some such. I wonder what he meant?
P.S. Did you notice the jew downgoating each post in this bread? Hymie doesn't like what we're discussing!

Pulled it up on what?
These amendments are supposed to be the highest law in the land, yet there are hundreds of thousands of regulations, acts, treaties, codes and directives that somehow overrule them.
I think he said also, we will have exactly the amount of tyranny we will tolerate.
they never do
