Letter to the Government

Outstanding

If I was as articulate I would say you took the words out of my mouth.

This is what I just posted;

I believe the only brave people out there are those in uniform willing to risk their lives to maintain and protect what we have in this “Greatest Country on God Green Earth”. Liberty and freedom were bought with the blood of our fore fathers, it is something we should all NOT take for granted. But, That is what it appears we are doing. We allow our government to NOT follow the rules that were created, NOT to protect our liberties. Our Liberty has been stomped on, deluded and twisted into a form that would be hardly recognizable by the founders of this country. If Ben Franklin or any other signer of the Declaration of Independence or Framers of the Constitution of the United States of America were to see what we our government has become, they would pick up their muskets and march on our capitals and demand that our President, Congressmen and Representatives stop the unconstitutional behavior and do what the constitution demands.
Whereas, the Constitution is a result of the Declaration of Independence severing our ties from the tyrannical rule of England, We should all remember what the words were that were written,

” 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. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.”

Whereas the Ballot Box is preferable to the cartridge box.
Let us all be strong in our resolve and become active in this government to retake the freedom be once had and vote without fail on this next election and become familiar with those we would vote for, spend the time and demand those in office follow the constitution they swore to defend and protect.
