That would be the second amendment.

Um no, if you value Tea Party nuts you are barking up the wrong tree. Or if you value Che as a solution, you are also barking up the wrong tree with me.

I do not value the idea of a revolution just to have one. I have seen too much of human history in print and even within my lifetime on the news to know you simply don't tip over power just because you don't like the way things are currently going. Most of the time when people do that it ends up as simply a power vacuum that shifts one monopoly to another monopoly.

I think our secular west has done far better than one party states or theocracies as far as human rights. I value our constitution and do not see a need to throw it out because I do not like the way some are abusing it currently.
