The collectivists are disingenuously using the first three words of the preamble against us in an effort to claim that rights only exist for the collective and not the individual.
The phrase "We the people..." has been used to prove (in their eyes) that you cannot mean individual rights when you start with WE as the word WE indicates a collective.
As I see it, every single person who holds this view is not only wrong... but an enemy of Liberty and the enemy enumerated in the oath of office where it says "I, John, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same..."
We have domestic enemies of Liberty, and many of them have found their way into government in an effort to entrench their beliefs into law or precedent... I hate the whole idea of judicial precedent... what about Constitutional precedent... SOBs!!!
