I have no recourse if its constitution doesn't forbid it.

Sure you do, you have 50 alternatives under the 10th amendment.

Wrong answer. A government that systematically violates the natural rights of its citizens is not a legitimate one and its citizens have no obligation to follow its dictates. Any citizen whose rights have been fundamentally violated has an obligation to make his issues with government policy known to the courts. If the courts refuse to comply then he/she has the right to dismiss the policy altogether if it is one in an area where natural law clearly is in opposition with the ruling class-i mean public's-opinion. If the public will not leave the peaceful, otherwise law-abiding individual alone then anyone who attempts to enforce the act of tyranny is no more than an armed thug. As such they deserve anything and everything that comes their way.
