Then it is our perrogative to reject the government...

[skeeter]

“What if”? Obama has all but verbally denounced the Constitution already.

[Navy Patriot]

What If the Government Rejects the Constitution?

What do you mean "if", Andy?

[Tigerized]

Our government rejected our Constitution long ago. Now it’s trying to figure out how to reject the wishes of people while still squeezing every penny out of them.

We have the right and the DUTY to abolish any government that no longer serves the people.

Game on.

consent of the governed
Amendment II

[VanDeKoik]

The COTUS is the only thing that legally allows the government to exist.

The minute they do that (not like they haven’t already), then they are no longer legitimate.

[Dr. Thorne]

“This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it. Whenever they shall grow weary of the existing government, they can exercise their constitutional right of amending it or their revolutionary right to dismember it or overthrow it.” - Abraham Lincoln

[theBuckwheat]

It cuts both ways: what if enough States voted to reject the present Federal Government?

Indeed with ObamaCare (tm) we have arrived the point where the present government with presently enacted laws is on the verge of being more dangerous to liberty and prosperity than anything that could be ratified by the States following a Constitutional Convention.

[LucianOfSamasota]

What if both political parties love power more than freedom?

The Romans ended up with an Emperor. But our 'leaders' seem predisposed to surrender US sovereignty to foreign (multinational) interests.

Either way, the number of 'subjects' is growing.

[Da Coyote]

CW-II, here we come.

[Ancesthntr]

Here are a few more questions:

What if a significant percentage of the population figured out that the feds didn’t give a damn about the Constitution and our laws, giving them lip service when convenient and ignoring them when it wasn’t, and decided that what’s good for the goose is good for the gander?

What if just 1% of gun owners - those roughly 900,000 people motivated most by the ideals of the American Revolution, those equipped with the best weapons and tactical gear available to civilians, those best trained in the use of those items and in small unit tactics - decided that the feds were a domestic enemy of the people and the Constitution, and acted accordingly?

What would the feds be able to do to combat some 900,000 highly motivated people spread across a continent intent on a replay of the American Revolution, when the feds could barely cope with the sloppy and incompetent “Beltway sniper” and his teenage accomplice?

Just asking.

[DeaconRed]

Then we REJECT the Government.
That is why we have a second amendment.
The more I learn about our founding Fathers the more in awe of them I become.
They thought of just about everything. They knew a time like this time would come.
Unarmed citizens pose little threat. . . . . . . .On the other hand ARMED citizens are hard to oppress. . . . .Especially armed Soda Crackers. . . . . . . . .

The writers of the Declaration of Independence put it well, there’s no improving on that.

[Psalm 144]

IF?!?

[knarf]

" But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

[onedoug]

It’s going to get very dark for a long time.

[mnehring]

The government is just a symptom of the citizenry choosing dependence over independence. Until that changes, we will continue with the same pattern.

[Yaelle]

Brilliance from the man with the lowest hairline in history.

[Phlap]

The Framers should have put a period after The Congress shall make no law. and left it at that.lol

[central_va]

What if a state(e) started to print it’s own money and forming voluntary infantry regiments with the governor as their C-in-C?
