So... the Bill of Rights does not give rights? Interesting. "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." That sounds like a right... as a matter of fact it used the word right and refers to the people having that right. "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures" Again another use of that pesky word right. "the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial... to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation... to be confronted with the witnesses against him... have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor... and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence." I think you see my point. The Constitution not only limits government powers, but also gives rights. I thought I posted this earlier but apparently I didn't. If someone ever seriously raised this as a Constitional violation it could easily be defeated by stating that Al-Awlaki wasn't the target. Another non-citizen scumbag in the same vehicle was the target... Al-Awlaki was collateral damage of that strike.- WTF? (**NSFW**)
