I was merely saying that this point:

> this freedom falls squarely within the preamble of the US Declaration of Independence

whether accurate or not, doesn't matter, because of the DOI isn't any sort of binding document. It can say that every man, woman and child deserve their own puppy, but that's not going to make it any more or less likely to happen.



"Merely" - no; your comment was nothing less than a straw man argument. I didn't say "Constitutional" anywhere, nor did I imply it. I stated unequivocally that it goes against the values of freedom the US was founded on.

The DoI does not say "everyone deserves a puppy". Give me a break and please take your straw man argument elsewhere.
