I agree. Only slighter lower on my facepalm scale than people who actively seek to overturn the constitution, are invocations of the constitution in a wholly inaccurate context.
The first amendment protects you against government suppression of your speech, but not private suppression on private grounds.
Similarly, the second guarantees my right to own firearms, however; on private property, you have the right to deny me entry with my guns, and any gun owner worth his salt will respect that right. The constitution has no bearing on private dealings between individuals, and any attempt to amend it to do so, in any fashion, should be crushed immediately by all right-thinking people.
"When they took the fourth amendment, I was quiet because I didn't deal drugs. When they took the sixth amendment, I was quiet because I was innocent. When they took the second amendment, I was quiet because I didn't own a gun. Now they've taken the first amendment, and I can say nothing about it"
"There are 4 boxes to use in the defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, ammo. Use in that order"
