Is it just me, or is deeming something an “unlawful assembly” a loophole they’ve found in the US Constitution? Don’t we either have the right of assembly or we don’t?

They wipe their asses with the Constitution.

Kind of like "the right to bear arms shall not be infringed"

Is it just me, or is the riot the new Democrat way of unmaking the US Constitution? Do you really think you can put that genie back in the bottle once you create a one party system? Narrator: “ The right of the people PEACEABLY to assemble...”

It's not just you. "Congress shall make no law ... abridging the ... right of the people peaceably to assemble" Much hinges of SCOTUS interpretation of the word "peaceably" however. Any assembly can be made not-peaceable if enough police "agents provocateur" are sent in.

One party is finds the constitution inconvenient to their absolute power and one party abides by the constitution. I’ll leave the math to you
Replying to @marwilliamson
The statement about our right to assemble does include the word "peaceably"

Kind of like how they made a loophole for slavery by pushing it to the prison system... Where corporations use it as a sweat-shop factory right here in the U.S. Hooray capitalism...

precisely. they've been chipping away at those things for years when people weren't looking. not just the 1st amendment either. The answer is we don't have it. If there's nobody to uphold or defend it the bill of rights is just a piece of paper.

You don't want to use that logic in public, people will start throwing it back at you re: 2A.
