Section 242 of Title 18 makes it a crime for a person acting under color of any law to willfully deprive a person of a right or privilege protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States. (...) The offense is punishable by a range of imprisonment up to a life term, or the death penalty, depending upon the circumstances of the crime, and the resulting injury, if any.

Not sure where this nugget goes, but it basically invalidates any legal ability to enforce bans on "gatherings" because of the right to assemble.

I'm not sure which category we'd put it in either, but it is a good reminder. I would expect freedom to worship and the RKBA should be included here as well.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

@jmyrlefuller  Moved to National News.  This could be the subject of some vigorous discussion in the coming months as lawsuits start hitting the dockets.

Right. But not at the point-in-fact... That is more for litigation, and fat lawyers in libraries with overstuffed chairs.  :shrug:
