Corporations do own property, as I explained. Corporations are also owned by persons who's stock value (which is also property, in this case owned by the individual owners) is damaged by the above unlikely scenario so they too would be able to show damage as individual people.
No critic of Citizens United has ever claimed corporations do not have property rights.
Quote:Corporations are tools used by people and people do not loose their constitutional rights just because they get together and incorporate.No one is suggesting that individuals lose their constitutional rights. The question is whether or not corporations gain other rights, such as the right of free speech.
The point you miss, in your arrogant lazy ignorance, is that corporations are persons ONLY with regard to property issues and legal/financial liabilities. They can't vote by law (likely to be struck down next). They don't have religion. They aren't conscious individuals who can have opinions about political matters. Owners can and they can hold picket signs like everyone else.
