Personally, though, I don’t need a legal justification for breaking the law when it impairs my survival, because I’m unwilling to sacrifice my survival or my conscience for the sake of obeying dead men. People who don’t recognize that laws can be wrong are, frankly, horrifying, because they have a tendency feel justified in doing horrible things.
So what do you think is in the Constitution that’s bad? I’m glad about it all personally, because it’s great having inalienable rights. The Constitution is the framework that America was built on, and it worked out better than most of the rest of the world generally.
