Truly a thing of beauty, honor, and respect.
Sobering.
There are actually a lot of dangerous ideas here. They don't teach the Declaration of Independence in school any more. Sure they will mention it when talking about the revolution, but they don't actually teach the words any more. Of course there is reason for that...
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.
...
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.
Imagine trying to run a school the way OUR schools are going with THIS concept running amok among its students.
Imagine our government attempting to try even half of the stuff they regularly get away with if a majority of its citizens believe it.
