We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with inherent and inalienable 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 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.
– Declaration of Independence
That includes gays, minorities, other religions…..every citizen has the inalienable right to happiness and life. And it says right in the Declaration that if we’re not happy with the government, that we should rise up and “alter” the government.
Let’s go V for Vendetta on the establishment, which is clearly not working. And certainly only hurting the common people with its willingness to put our great grand children into debt.
You heard Thomas Jefferson. Let’s get off our butts and save our country!

So, who is most likely to violently overthrow the government? The kook militia types, that’s who. They are the best armed at this point. I prefer the constitutional process.
