Could this make less sense?

Here's Ashcroft's new bill of rights

necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people,
including suspected terrorists, to keep and bear Arms, shall not be
infringed.

2. Congress shall make no law.  The Executive branch, however, can go

In this current situation we all have to be very careful and watch
what we say, right Ari?
