Freedom

Music Junkie asked:


To sacrifice something for your country is patriotic. I assume terrorists are unpatriotic [towards our country] because they try to kill us.
So is it good give up a little freedom to preserve the majority of it?

The first amendment refers specifically to Congress. I was wondering if that meant that the President could issue an executive order denying certain people freedom of religion.

Thanks in advance for any info.
I know the president must enforce the law. My question is whether the law accounts for a president who wishes to deny people basic freedoms.

It is definitely illegal for Congress to do so, but I can’t find anything in the Constitution that says that the President can’t.
