Article 5 doesn't oblige members to take any particular action. It only says that an attack on one is an attack on all, and leaves it to each member to decide what actions, if any, they will take in response.

This is somewhat similar to how Nicaraguan sign language was developed. Basically, kids at a school for the deaf invented it.

Almost certainly. You'd have to go out of your way to find a keyfob system that doesn't. I administer a keyfob system at work, and I can tell you exactly whose key was used on which doors and at what times.

It almost certainly will record every usage of the keyfob. It may also record opening the door from inside.

Many different kinds of organizations are organized as corporations. Charities, newspapers, churches, etc. If the amendment was not carefully written, it could be construed to deny important rights, such as press freedom or religious freedom, to organizations that really ought to be protected. Similarly, the protections against unwarranted search and seizure or taking of property for pubic use without compensation should probably continue to cover corporations.

Really, the only problem I see WRT corporations having constitutional rights is the decision that political spending is protected speech. The other constitutional rights are generally not problematic.

So maybe something like this:

  1. No person, whether natural born human or legal fiction, shall spend, donate, or otherwise make valuable contributions to any candidate or campaign, if said person is not entitled to vote in the election for such candidate or campaign.

  2. Only natural born human beings shall be entitled to vote in any election.

There's an entire Star Trek instance (startrek.website) that followed the /r/daystrominstitute community from reddit during the Exodus.

Left4Dead2. Infinitely replayable, multiplayer without being toxic (except Versus mode), simple enough for n00bs to not be a burden most of the time.
