Government is forgetting that our rights are unalienable

By Eric Utter


I hate bullies.
And government is the biggest bully of them all. Always. Everywhere. Since governments were instituted. Kings. Tyrants. Dictators. Banana republics. The Soviet Union. The Third Reich. Chairman Mao. Pol Pot. Idi Amin Dada. Fidel Castro. Hugo Chávez. Etc., etc., etc. And now Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong-un, the Iranian mullahs, the Biden administration, Justin Trudeau, and Scott Morrison.
Two hundred forty-five years ago, Thomas Jefferson's Declaration of Independence proclaimed: "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."
Those were — and still are — the most important and providential words ever written or read outside of certain passages in the Bible.
The Declaration went on to note that governments are instituted among men for the purpose of securing those rights, and that they derive their just powers only "from the consent of the governed." Get that? Legitimate governments exist not to grant, limit, or abolish our freedoms, but to protect them.

They will get their reminder.

Gonna be that way until high velocity handouts are served.

Government remembers, they're just counting on us to forget.
