Why are tyrants so afraid of these three things?

Question

Citizen privacy, unrestricted speech, and individual ownership of firearms.

Tyrants LOATHE the First, Second, and Fourth amendments.

Joseph Stalin, Mao Tse Tung, and Adolph Hitler (among others) couldn't abide these three things.

It's a shame that the Democrats are trying to destroy the Second, while the Republicans are h**l-bent on eradicating the First and Fourth.

What does it take to get a party in the White House and Congress, that loves ALL of the amendments?

Answer 1

I do not see the Republicans trying to eradicate the first and fourth amendments.  Were they trying to eradicate the first amendment, for example, they would have sought out and prosecuted the government employees that leaked information to the press about the secret holding sites for enemy combatants (also known as terrorists) overseas, among other things.

Answer 2

I guess you will have to start getting everyone to vote for the Constitutional Party or Libertarian Party. Bob Barr and Baldwin are running for president too you know. Wouldn't that be great if these two parties dominated and the Democrat and Republican Parties collapsed?

“When the government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.” – Thomas Jefferson

Answer 3

Well, when the Chicago Tribune wants to do away with the second amendment (see link below), it make me want to do away with their first amendment right to free speech because they are a danger to this country.

Answer 4

Someone with no political experience.
