The Declaration of Independence can never possibly mean what you claim, It can only ever mean what our Founders said, and none of them ever said it justified an unlimited "right of secession" at pleasure.

They said exactly that. Again, diagram the sentences.

You may not like it, but that is exactly what the Declaration of Independence says. It isn't even murky about it, it comes right out and says that people can abolish their government for any reason they see fit.

:"it comes right out and says that people can abolish their government for any reason they see fit."

They said nothing of the sort, either in the Declaration or subsequently.
You are simply a typical "liberal" Democrat hoping to redefine the terms according to your own wishes.

DiogenesLamp: "exactly what the Declaration of Independence says.
It isn't even murky about it, it comes right out and says that people can abolish their government for any reason they see fit."

But no Founder ever claimed that's what they intended.
Rather, Founders like Madison explained their Declaration idea as: when a legal contract is broken that relieves the parties from their legal obligations to honor it.
And "broken" refers to such major events as spelled out in their Declaration of Independence.
