Under what grounds should be the immediate response. We have extremely clear laws, that were abandoned under the terrible twosome of Woodrow Wilson and FDR. Does making unconstitutional laws with a neutered Supreme Court justify violence? Let’s ask the founding fathers.
“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. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. 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.”
I always love this part of the declaration of independence that no one seems to realize exists. I mean even wikipedia [pretty darn left these days and often trying to wash this stuff away] says about this part: "Outlines a general philosophy of government that justifies revolution when government harms natural rights."
I don't think you can reasonably say an American's natural rights have not long been harmed or even more so....
