There are plenty of laws that affect someone’s freedom as you pointed out. I’m talking about Constitutional rights such as free speech or the right to bear arms.

If you don’t agree with those provisions there is a method to change them and too often short cuts are made that are only corrected after the fact in the courts. Take for instance Biden's vaccine mandate. He knew that was unlawful yet he knowingly did it anyhow. There should be a personal consequence to that beyond not being re-elected.

Ah, ok, those aren't freedoms, those are right. You started talking about rights and then started saying freedom, so I was confused. Especially when you talked about having fewer laws because of it.

And I don't believe if the precedent is set regarding freedom from vaccinations being a fundamental right. Won't that have to be decided by the higher level courts? I don't think we're at that stage of treason yet, are we? After all, there will be appeals, and I don't know if a district judge should have the power to charge and punish POTUS.
