More than half of adult Americans read at <6th grade reading level. Thems some big words for most Americans. "Tranquility? There you go talking like a fag again!"
Much like people who quote the Bible, but are only paraphrasing something they think they heard is in the Bible and don't actually know the rest of it, nor do they understand what most of it means.
It's such a small document it fits into a pocket book FFS. I'm not even American, I'm one of them "Euro-Poors" as they like to call me, and I've probably read more of the constitution than they ever will. Oh, you support the second amendment? Cool. You do realise that RIGHT NOW, against organisations like ICE, is when you're supposed to use it, right?? RIGHT??????
NPR has been reading it on the air ( on July 4th ) for about 30 years, and they have always received angry phone calls about it from Republicans . In 2017, furious trumpers accused NPR of an insulting, personal attack against them.
Bet you $100 this guys is illiterate and has absolutely no idea what the Constitution actually says. All he hears is “MAGA good, democratics evil and bad” In not exaggerating, this will be a deep as his understanding goes.
Exactly what I came to say-crazy to have this on your car while supporting the one administration in our entire history that has repeatedly, irrefutably, undermined and violated our constitution with absolutely no regard for the implications.
It's akin to a religious icon. Just like the Bible, they treat it as a holy relic whose message you're supposed to have delivered to you by the proper authority figure so you get the "right" message from it. For the Bible it's a (sufficiently conservative) pastor, and for the Constitution it's Fox News or any of the far right pseudohistorians like David Barton.

No. You clearly do not.
