We defend the constitution--unconstitutional laws are not laws!

Fellow service members, active, retired and veterans... what do you think about our constitutional rights and the law? Do you believe laws that are established to restrict our constitutional rights are valid? Listen to what this marine says--I suggest he hit the nail on the head.

Since "We the People" are the government, in a sense, then his comments are valid. The rule of law argument is valid, but when the law is established by a few or by a government no longer validated by the people then the law is invalid. To support and defend the constitution, against all enemies, foreign and (specially) domestic, civil disobedience is required at times. The Boston Tea Party, Lexington and Concord, and other acts of the colonists prior to the Declaration of Independence, were acts of civil disobedience, which I would add, are highly respected and revered acts by Americans today.

To be accurate, We the People are not the government. We are the sovereign. We grant to the government whatever limited powers they have to serve us. However, beyond that, you are absolutely correct and I stand with you
