Yes. The British rulers thought this as well when it first came out.

I’m surprised they don’t have a warning that it was written by “Slave Holders”.

the mask has completely slipped off, or is it now a case of they think they have nothing to fear and threw it away...

i’m guessing it’s the latter

What part of “Preserve, Protect and Defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic” did they forget all of a sudden?

It is about time we invoke these words...

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.

Oh, and by the way. I lifted that quote from the National Archives web site. There was no such warning label.

They might have taken down the warnings. I’ve just visited the National Archives pages in question and I can’t find any harmful language warnings. Could I be missing something here. Does anyone have a link to the warning page.

It would be easy to find out. Who runs the IT dept? Ask them. Fire all involved.

They’re worried needlessly since cursive is no longer taught most won’t be able to read the actual documents. The interpretations they put in print can be revised for everyone’s safety.

It’s important to protect persons accustomed to living in a sheltered, politically correct environment (such as our schools and universities) from the language they might encounter in some historical documents. ;-)

In its defense the site makes the point that these are not specific alerts for those particular documents but general ones for all documents. ("This alert is not connected to any specific records, but appears at the top of the page while you are using the online Catalog," NARA wrote on Twitter. [The Washington Examiner]) The fact remains, though, that they could have a general link on the Archives home page about usage of documents and put whatever bs they wish there rather than allow such labels to appear at the top of our founding documents.
