No, that’s exactly what it means. Law enforcement officers are agents of the state. The state not respecting your constitutional rights is equivalent to not having them.

No, even if law enforcement doesn’t respect your rights, you still have them.

That’s why if the cops are violating your rights, you follow up in court.
