A portion of the 14th amendment to the US Constitution:

Once you accept masks and other BS, will you hand over your guns when they declare another "state of emergency".

What are the limits of a state of emergency? Answer: the US Constitution.
Was the US Constitution penned with a global pandemic in mind that is killing hundreds of thousands of people?
