The US has a different basis of law than USSR and a different history that doesn’t justify violent insurrection.

With all due respect, WTF do you think happened between 1775 and 1783? A frickin' quilting bee?

The very existence of this country justifies violent insurrection!!! You must be mistaking the USA for Canada.

Add to this the fact that there are legions of writings from our Founding Fathers cautioning us to reserve the ability to violently overthrow the government as a means of holding it in thrall and you'll find that absent the possibility of violent overthrow we will establish the exact tyranny from which those good men fought to free themselves.

In 1775 the English parliament began a war on the various colonies. They lost that war. In the aftermath of that war, they reformed their system of representation and colonial administration.

I recommend you read the D of I for why that revolution was justified.
