OT and political: Looking for guidance
 

The US constitution offers no helpagainst a government that legally
establishes tyranny but I found the following:

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people
to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another
and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal
station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them,
a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should
declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created
equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable
Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of
Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted
among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the
governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive
of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish
it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such
principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall"
seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."

Note the last sentence. Yup, the Dec. of Ind. takes precedence in
establishing a right to revolt against an Obamanite tyranny if
necessary. Thank God Americans are armed.

Huh? The Declaration of Independance takes precedence over the US
Constitution? I don't think so, since the latter was written after the
former. While I wish it were true, it aint happening.

No offense here, but what is your name? If you want to be called ohara5.0 so
be it... just wondering since you never sign your posts.

Read the Declaration of Independence again. Read the US Constitution
again. We consent to be governed. We don't consent to tyranny or
subjugation.

I agree... when Mexico tries to take over. However, when a President is
elected by the rules governed by the Constitution, that's a different
matter. California thought it was a good idea to recall Davis for an
actor... now we want his head on a platter. I did not vote for Ardold, BTW.

The constitution defines and limits the powers of govt. It is very
clear from the 9th and 10th amendments that it is not intended to
limit rights of people. The Declaration clearly sets out the idea of
the rights of people to rebellion against tyranny and this is not
affected by the Constitution.
