The Declaration of Indpendence elaborated on this concept by stating outright that certain rights, particularly life and liberty, are inalienable — and thus that no government document may legitimately deny those rights to an innocent person.

You're getting in over your head, Doc.

The Declartion of Independence HAS NO FORCE IN LAW WHATSOEVER!!! It was merely a declaration of greivences against the Crown and what the colonists intended to do about it, at that time.

Wouldn’t be the first time.

I am aware. Thanks.

A “declaration of greivances” that could’ve been just as applicable to us. If the acts of King George were illegal usurpations of power, so were the acts of the United States with regard to slavery.
