The Liberal Bill of Rights

Amendment I

Congress shall separate Church and State, and ensure that no public agency ever acknowledge the existence of religion. Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech, except for such speech as is spoken by white males regarding women or minorities. Religion shall be defined as subjective belief systems with no basis in fact that involve rituals in a church or equivalent sacred area. Subjective belief systems with no basis in fact that do not perform rituals in a church-equivalent shall be the foundation of government policy.
_____

Amendment II

A National Guard and public Law Enforcement Agencies, to be established at a yet-to-be-determined time within the next two centuries, being necessary to the security of a police state, the right of certain government employees to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
_____

Amendment III

No woman shall, in time of pregnancy, be barred from killing her child at will, regardless of medical necessity, at any point between conception and delivery. Should a woman kill her children after delivery, while it may be considered a criminal act, it shall be seen as an unfortunate consequence of mental anguish caused by dwelling in a male-dominated society, rather than a heinous crime. Fathers are considered to have no connection to the child, and to be irrelevant to its care, outside of monetary support.
_____

Amendment IV

The right of the people to pretend to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unwarranted and imagined fears, shall be absolute. Freedoms shall be removed from the citizenry and scary items banned as rapidly as possible to accomplish said goal, regardless of whether this accomplishes true safety, or even decreases it.
_____

Amendment V

Economic concerns shall be subjugated to environmental concerns, the validity of which shall be determined by emotional and spiritual divinations, rather than scientific endeavor.
_____

Amendment VI

In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to blame his indiscretions on racism and poverty. The victim instead shall accept responsibility for the crime, and for his part in establishing such a hateful society.
_____

Amendment VII

Progressive taxation shall be the basis of Federal income, which shall hereafter be free from budgetary constraints, so that "The Rich" are not given unfair compensation for their unfairly disproportionately strong contribution to an unfairly prosperous economy.
_____

Amendment VIII

Of criminals, excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor jailtime prescribed without rapid parole, nor the death penalty imposed, nor access to cable television or the internet hindered, nor punishment inflicted.
_____

Amendment IX

The enumeration in the constitution of certain rights is flexible, and shall be denied to the people at governmental whim as "times change" and basic human rights become "outdated".
_____

Amendment X

The powers not explicitly delegated to the Federal Government by the constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are assumed to be delegated to the Federal Government anyway.
_____

Amendment XI

In order to avoid the appearance of "arrogance", and as the concept of the people deciding their own fate reeks of provincial tribalism, the national interests of the country shall not be decided by its elected representatives, but rather by an organization of unelected representatives of foreign nations.
_____

Amendment XII

The concept of patriotism or otherwise acting in the interest of the nation shall be considered abhorrent and primitive, although this shall not construed as a lack of patriotism on the part of this constitution's adherents.
_____

Amendment XIII

Citizens have the right to pay large portions of their income to provide for the medical care of complete strangers, medical professionals shall undergo years of difficult and intense training in order to have the right to have their work offered to anyone at a price determined by the State, and patients shall have the right to have substandard healthcare rationed out to them at the State's whim.
_____

Amendment XIV

Racial discrimination shall form the basis of all educational and hiring requirements, as long as races discriminated against are "white" and "asian". As this amendment implies that non-asian minorities are incapable of competing with whites and asians in intellectual arenas, and is therefore racist, this amendment is now pending prosecution for hate speech crimes.
_____

Amendment XV

"Human Rights" shall be defined as only those benefits provided by the State, such as may be funded by taxation. The term "rights" shall not be construed to provide actual rights, such as might exist independent of government control.

You need to put it in incomprehensible lawyerspeak, so that people can endlessly argue about the interpretation. That way, while the intended meaning is clearly what you want it to be, when their goals change, the democrats can claim that it meant something completely different. Fuckwicket.

At the very least, they're thinking ahead.

11-01-2005, 04:09
Here's my version:

Amendment I
Religion and State shall be separated as different entities, seeing as one gives spiritual services (Religion) while the other gives realistic services (State). Freedom of speech, freedom of press, freedom to worship or not worship is granted and may not be taken away under any circumstances.

Amendment II
All members of militias may own firearms. Militias can be formed by anyone, however they must be approved by the state(as in Kansas, not country) they are located in and have a "Militia Permit". This permit may be taken away if its holders break federal or state law.

Amendment III
The government does not exist to make sure you are not disturbed. Anyone trying to take away someone's rights using this argument (ala gay marriage) will be ignored.

Amendment IV
Everyone has the right to a fair and speedy trial with no cruel or unusual punishment. Excessive bail, fines, or other monetary jurisdictive monetary expenditures will not be levied.

Amendment V
Searches will be conducted on hidden private property only with a warrant or probable cause. Public or openly visible property may be searched without a warrant.

Amendment VI
Citizens may take drugs, smoke, get married with any conscenting adult, and anything else they want so long as it does not involve harming anyone or breaking federal or state law. Wide area of effect damages such as secondary smoke are included.

Amendment VII
The Federal Government exists to govern. The State Government exists to implement the direction of the Federal Government to its locality, and as such may make laws that assist it in doing so.
