Again, I'm confused. Are you saying that federal laws mandating the death penalty, incarceration, and fines of any kind are unconstitutional?
Or are you saying rights are inalienable and absolute unless they're suspended?
Or are you saying rights re inalienable and absolute even when they're suspended?
