A Preexisting Condition

[More]
Speaking of preexisting conditions:
We look to this because it has always been widely understood that the Second Amendment , like the First and Fourth Amendment s, codified a pre-existing right. The very text of the Second Amendment implicitly recognizes the pre-existence of the right and declares only that it “shall not be infringed.” As we said in United States v. Cruikshank, 92 U. S. 542, 553 (1876) , “[t]his is not a right granted by the Constitution. Neither is it in any manner dependent upon that instrument for its existence. The Second amendment declares that it shall not be infringed … .”

Nobody is denying her kid the "right" for care. However, we are saying we are not paying for it. I really wish they'd stop conflating things. Just because it's not free doesn't mean you receive it by paying for it...
