Radical Freedom
You are saying that , for example, Founding Father Patrick Henry objected to the FEDERAL government transgressing upon his rights but had no objection if the State of Virginia tyrannize him, is that right?
You're referring to the famous 'give me liberty or give me death' speech? If so, check the dates.
As for being 'tyrannized by Virginia', Virginia had its own Declaration of Rights adopted unanimously in 1776. Virginia's Declaration of Rights, like the Virginia Constitution, applied to Virginia. The Bill of Rights, like the Constitution, applied to the Federal government.
The only caveat is that there were a handful of instances in the US Constitution where restrictions were placed on the States. But every restriction was explicitly enumerated.
And I noticed you avoided the Barron V. Baltimore case, the first draft of the Bill of Rights, and the reading of the Barron ruling on the House floor by Congressman John Bingham.
They're pretty hard to argue against, aren't they?
The Founding Fathers did their very best to create a free Constitutional Republic. Unfortunately, from the very beginning the SCOTUS has been populated by government supremacist scumbgags, low life pieces of shit - elitist motherfuckers - who refuse to interpret the Constitution and have engaged instead in amending the document.
."Contrary to all correct example, [the Federal judiciary] are in the habit of going out of the question before them, to throw an anchor ahead and grapple further hold for future advances of power. They are then in fact the corps of sappers and miners, steadily working to undermine the independent rights of the States and to consolidate all power in the hands of that government in which they have so important a freehold estate." --Thomas Jefferson: Autobiography, 1821. ME 1:121
"At the establishment of our Constitutions, the judiciary bodies were supposed to be the most helpless and harmless members of the government. Experience, however, soon showed in what way they were to become the most dangerous; that the insufficiency of the means provided for their removal gave them a freehold and irresponsibility in office; that their decisions, seeming to concern individual suitors only, pass silent and unheeded by the public at large; that these decisions nevertheless become law by precedent, sapping by little and little the foundations of the Constitution and working its change by construction before any one has perceived that that invisible and helpless worm has been busily employed in consuming its substance. In truth, man is not made to be trusted for life if secured against all liability to account." --Thomas Jefferson to A. Coray, 1823. ME 15:486
