I have some reading for you ...

Right and duty of a citizen to overthrow a government Bill Of Rights

http://www.law.indiana.edu/uslawdocs/declaration.html
read the second paragraph cut and paste some for you 
.That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these 
ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to 
institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and 
organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to 
effect their Safety and Happiness 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. —Such has been the patient sufferance of these 
Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter 
their former Systems of Government


The confederates used the same right to overthrow a government, in this 
case, the North


http://www.texas-scv.org/

And, like King George today, believes God should guide this nation, they 
do not believe in separation of church and state .


http://www.civilwarhome.com/csconstitution.htm
First Paragraph
*/invoking the favor and guidance of Almighty God,/*


In a way, the South is raising, like so many times stated by them South 
will Rise Again Other little known things in US History that few people 
know and talk about


Andersonville like ww 2 camps:

Trail of Tears:
Forced march of Cherokee Nation of 15,000 out of Georgia left 4,000 to 
5,000 dead

Reminds me of a comedy bit I heard once:

So why do you Canadians always end your sentences with 'eh?'

'Well, what do you Americans say to turn a statement into a question?'

Huh?

Tomas Jefferson believed that governments are basically evil and the 
citizens have the right to overthrow the government by force. Therefore, 
the right to bear arms to kill leaders and their troops of the evil 
empire ... The South used this logic in the civil war in US history but 
Lincoln said otherwise  today the notion is really outdated ... the 
force needed to overthrow a government is far from a gun like the NRA  
so-called protects and yes, I agree with you about your American's 
Gun Mentality best armed citizen in the world .
   Today, the right to bear arms should be Tanks, cruise missiles, 
submarines, and WMD's and the like which are outlawed for a US citizen 
to own .

Hey, Mike, not fired it up yet, but probably tomorrow.

We put a used relay into it and tried to start it immediately when we got
back, but the relay was bad. Wait two days, get another one.

Try again and the starter expires before our eyes (literally, the wire from
the soleniod to the main unit sizzled into dust). Took me a few days to find
my spare one. Then both my wrench and I got a bug going around up here that
knocked us flat.

Got the starter in today but then the battery started to behave like it has
an internal short. So tomorrow we're trying again, with a new battery.

Damn, this is irritating me, I want to drive this thing!

Cheers

I once attempted to enlist in the reserves when I was 17, but I failed
the medical due to asthma. They said it was a black/white issue and
any hint of asthma was grounds for prohibition of enrolement. Man,
that pissed off a kid who had spent every spare hour watching the Gulf
War. My buddy, who I sign up with, just told me he just retired from
18 years in the reserves. I couldn't believe so long had passed.

There was once a saying that Canada had a superiorly-trained military,
probably because they were in perpetual training with no conflict
involvement aside from peacekeeping missions. Our current main
involvement is Afghanistan, and hey, it can't be THAT bad - they just
got 800 new G-wagens!

But then I was reading a Cdn military magazine at the bookstore a
couple weeks back and one soldier in Afghanistan wrote to complain
about the G-Wagens having severe reliability issues...
