Im not surprised you have such a low opinion of Thomas Jefferson.
You mean that quote:
The tree of corporate gun lobbyists must be watered with your donations and fertilized with bullshit?
No. I mean his rather publicized viewpoint that sometimes the citizens have to rise up against government. In fact, it's enshrined in a document we call the Declaration of Independence. Im surprised your unfamiliar with it.
It's not something that should be done lightly, but there are times when it is not only necessary to do so, but right and just to do so.
Enshrined in the Declaration of Independence? The DoI is a founding document - but not a governing document. I repeat - not a governing document. It has no force of law.
