Thanks for this. Some mornings its nice to see something like this instead of people calling for blind violence. They should go read this document.
Draw their inspiration from this, not hate, or misguided thoughts. When the time comes, if it ever comes. These words, our words will ring true, and
be heard across the world, once again.

Many of the grievances listed in the Declaration of Independence have arouse again and against our own Federal and State govts. As I sat this morning
and read over this, the most important writing in our nations history, I am reminded that these men, put on the line, by the stroke of a pen, their
lives, families and property.
They stood up against the most powerful empire on Earth and, even if they were unsure of the eventual outcome of their action, they would not lay down and be walked on.
These are not just words on an old piece of paper. These are truths that revive themselves from time to time. When the Elite forget that they are not better than us. When the powerful forget that their power comes from us and when the lesser of us forget that they are endowed with the same rights and responsibilities as the rest of us.
Read the words, take them in and savor them like a good glass of wine or a fine cigar. You will find no better words in history. They are our words.
The Unanimous Declaration
of the Thirteen United States of America
(Adopted by Congress on July 4, 1776)
When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds 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.

Thank you.
This document speaks, not only to the generation that wrote it, but to us. When we see our "elected officials" step outside the bounds set for them, we the people need to send them a copy of this and highlight the appropriate grievance.
They, as the crown, have become bloated in their arrogance. They have forgotten that it is we that lend them power and that we may snatch it away at any time.
