One of these rights was freedom of speech. Another was the right to carry arms. --Morgoth seismo!rochester!ritcv!ccieng5!ccieng2!bwm Again and again, you demonstrate your ignorance of the constitution. There is NOTHING in the constitution that can't legally be changed, given a large enough majority. Get your facts straight! Alan Driscoll Bell Labs, Murray Hill
