Conservatives think parts of the Constitution are "fake"

The 5th Amendment requires grand juries for federal (felony) cases.
No, it doesn't.
But it does not require them of the states
Depends on the case.
because that is one of the rights that have not been incorporated
What incorporation? The 5th amendment has always applied to the States as well as the federal government.
because they are not seen as fundamental to liberty or justice.
It is.
"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury"
Contextomy fallacy. You are quoting out of context.

5th Amendment of the Constitution of the United States said:
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

Not all cases require a grand jury. Where a case warrants a grand jury, that shall be provided. The States are just as bound to this as the federal government. Not all cases are capital or infamous crimes, dumbass.
 
Conservatives believe in the constitution as it was written

1. Conservatives seceded from America because they didn't like the Constitution, and wrote their own.

2. Conservatives want to change the Constitution to ban things like gay marriage and abortion, and get rid of the 14th Amendment.

3. If you're applying originalism to it, then that goes for everything it covers, including guns. So...only muskets for you.


unlike liberals who think it should be as they interpret it, as if they are the forefathers reincarnated

The Constitution, like any Legal document, is meant to be interpreted.

No, that would be the Democrats.
2. Conservatives want to change the Constitution to ban things like gay marriage and abortion, and get rid of the 14th Amendment.
Marriage is not mentioned in the Constitution. There are those (including me) that think the 14th amendment should be repealed.
3. If you're applying originalism to it, then that goes for everything it covers, including guns. So...only muskets for you.
The 2nd amendment does not specify muskets or any other type of weapon.
The Constitution, like any Legal document, is meant to be interpreted.
It is plainly written. The only ones authorized to interpret the Constitution are the States, collectively.
