Respect My Constitutional Rights

 

We must demand of the politicians at all levels of government to respect our endowed rights, guaranteed in the Constitutions.
At our request, at any local, state, or federal gatherings of elected officials and legal American Citizens,
when an elected official needs to be reminded of the endowed rights we retain,
when elected officials and all in attendance are asked to stand in respect
for the reading of a particular amendment(s) by an American Citizen, relating to the issue(s) presently in discussion,
and after the American Citizen has been recognized and has the floor to speak,  1st amendment,
everyone should comply with this request to stand, not because of law,
 but out of respect for the endowed right(s) being recited by the speaker at the podium.

 Consider this:  The same respect is asked of attendees, and many times, demanded when:

 

A One enters a courtroom which is in session.  Sometimes you can be held in contempt by the judge if you don’t comply.
 
You can also be held in contempt if you don’t comply and stand when the judge enters the courtroom for a court session.


A When an invocation is announced in a public meeting of any group of elected officials, we are asked to stand.

 

A Often, at a public meeting of elected officials, we are asked to remain standing after the invocation, for the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag.

 

A When you enter either the NC Senate or the NC House Chambers while in session, we are asked, (demanded often),
that the men remove their hats upon entering the chamber.

 

A We are asked to stand for invocations, to remove our hats, and remain standing
for the playing the National Anthem or the Pledge of Allegiance.

 
A Officers of the law and service men are instructed to salute the flag during the playing of the National Anthem.

 

A We (men) generally remove our hats in church, and many times, congregations stand during the reading from the Holy Scriptures.

 

Why is it not acceptable to require that elected officials and attendees stand in respect for the presentation or reading
of an endowed right(s) from the Constitutions?

Elected officials must respect our rights, or we will employ the rights we retain to remind our elected officials
 and their comrades that our rights trump their arrogance and disregard of our Constitutional Endowed Rights.
