Sorry he accused me of something publically I thought I should have the right to respond publically. I also do not see that his post was erased.
Anyway back on topic. I already got my first response from someone who read you post. Here is what he said
FROM FATED 1: USCONSTITUTION.NET
"1. The Declaration of Independence is not the law of the US. It is mearly a declaration and has force whatsoever.
Nest the author of the poorly worded secessionist document says this
From the linked article wrote:This is evident in the Second Amendment and the Tenth Amendment of the Constitution, where measures to check the power
of the federal government were adopted
The Bill of Rights enumerates some of the rights that all humans posses the author portrays this in a manner not consistent with the writing of the
founding fathers, further the 2nd is about self defense and the individual firearms ownership. It is no more a special check of Federal power that the
1st.
What the author is doing is decontextulising these documents to prove his thesis. Look further
From the linked article wrote:It seems clear enough by the wording here that at the very least, it is the right, if not the duty of a free state, to
secure their freedom as a state, with arms.
The Bill of Rights is about individual rights not State Powers, the Founding Fathers clearly used the word right for an individual and power for a
State. So this whole argument is bases on a logical fallacy from the start. Look to the recent 2nd amendment ruling in Heller, there SCOTUS said
exactly the Founding Father knew how to write and the difference between rights and powers."
