>How’s this for a plan? We build a government that is bound by the Constitution.

That’s your plan for after the revolution, build a government bound by the Constitution?

That’s great. No, it really is. That’s a wonderful goal.

So. Who will be killed? Who will be saved? How do you keep the food and essential supplies flowing in the midst of chaos and people who now feel like they are not bound by law but by the fact that they have a gun in their hands? How will order be restored? Who will decide who leads? How do you prevent a strongman with the biggest militia force to lay down the rules — which may not include the august wisdom of the Constitution but merely a lust for power?

THIS is the stuff the Founding Fathers thought about before declaring independence.

Have YOU or your buddies thought about it?
