[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] [i]the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the Constitution's guarantees apply to every person within U.S. borders, including "aliens whose presence in this country is unlawful."[/i] And the Supreme Court would be (GASP!) WRONG! From Ammendment XIV "No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." So all people are guarenteed equal protection of the law; and all people are guarenteed the right to their life, liberty, and property, except under due process. But ONLY CITIZENS are absolutely guarenteed the privileges and immunities enumerated in the Constitution. And before Jeff goes on his usual bent about how the Supreme Court is a board of dictators, and screw the Constitution... Article VI, Paragraph II "This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authbority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws ofany State to the Contrart notwith-standing." Constitution trumps Supreme Court. [/QB][/QUOTE]
