	Twenty-fifth Amendment of the Constitution (Protec
		He said that the amended Constitution did not now confer a right to abortion outside of Ireland; it merely prevented injunctions against travelling for that purpose and, thus, under the travel amendment, a court could not make an order authorising travel to another jurisdiction for an abortion that was not lawful under the Irish Constitution.
		The final sentence says "There is nothing in the proposed amendment or in the envisaged legislation which would render it illegal for a health board to assist a woman to travel outside the jurisdiction in such cases", "such cases" being cases where the threat of suicide is invoked as the basis for the abortion.
		By the 1861 Act and the 1983 amendment of the Constitution, abortion is banned in Ireland, subject to the exception allowed by the X case decision, that is to say where there is grave danger to the life of the mother even if this, as with threatened suicide, may be a danger posed by herself.

	A CRITICAL GUIDE TO THE SECOND AMENDMENT
		Robert Bork, for example, has described the Ninth Amendment as an "inkblot" whose meaning cannot be deciphered,[5] and has referred to the right of privacy as a "loose canon in the law."[6] Supporters of such sexual rights, on the other hand, tend to take rather expansive views of what the Ninth Amendment protects.
		Rather, the Second Amendment adheres to the guarantee of the right of the people to keep and bear arms as the predicate for the other provision to which it speaks, i.e., the provision respecting a militia, as distinct from a standing army separately subject to congressional...
		The purpose of the right to bear arms is twofold: to allow individuals to protect themselves and their families, and to ensure a body of armed citizenry from which a militia could be drawn,[60] whether that militia's role was to protect the nation, or to protect the people from a tyrannical government.

	WHETHER THE SECOND AMENDMENT SECURES AN INDIVIDUAL RIGHT (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The First Amendment secures "the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances," and the Fourth safeguards "[t]he right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures." In addition, the Ninth Amendment refers to "rights.
		The Second Amendment's preface identifies as a justification for the individual right that a necessary condition for an effective citizen militia, and for the "free State" that it helps to secure, is a citizenry that is privately armed and able to use its private arms.
		The Preamble of the Constitution states the goal of making "secure the Blessings of Liberty," and the Fourth Amendment highlights the importance of the individual "right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects." A secure free State was one in which liberties and rights were secure.

	The Right to Keep and Bear Arms
		What the Subcommittee on the Constitution uncovered was clear — and long lost — proof that the second amendment to our Constitution was intended as an individual right of the American citizen to keep and carry arms in a peaceful manner, for protection of himself, his family, and his freedoms.
		When New Hampshire gave the Constitution the ninth vote needed for its passing into effect, it called for adoption of a Bill of Rights which included the provision that "Congress shall never disarm any citizen unless such as are or have been in actual rebellion".
		Indeed, the debates over the Constitution constantly referred to the organized militia units as a threat to freedom comparable to that of a standing army, and stressed that such organized units did not constituted, and indeed were philosophically opposed to, the concept of a militia.
