Kind of like here in America where humans rights have been trampled for profit
for something like the last 100 years. And we're still here.
The right to bear arms was also trampled to death because an armed society is a
polite society; Human rights enforcement of the highest order.
There should been no lawmakers because they would only make corrupt law. I
believe the founding fathers lacked the guidance and intelligence to write a
workable constitution.
