"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." --
The Declaration of Independence
Unforunately far too many, both on the street and in civic office, have forgotten the powerful words. The very fabric of our nation is being shredded beyond repair; I fear. The past few months may well have launched us on a collision course with the destruction of our nation. God help us and give us bold men of character and sound thinking!
