A friend recently asked me an interesting hypothetical question: if fraud and other means of chicanery were found to have been employed by insurrectionists to unlawfully upend the results of our nation’s 2020 election process, would that unlawful regime of insurrectionists have the moral authority to prosecute patriots for exactly that of which their regime is itself guilty—insurrection?
Wouldn’t that confront America with a bit of a conundrum?
That is, is it possible we could now have a government that—akin to the empire of King George—would prosecute those who—like our founding fathers—might find themselves impelled some day soon to sign a document akin to the Declaration of Independence?
For instance, something like the following:
An Abridged Hypothetical
DECLARATION OF LIBERTY
This document is to accurately set forth some of the current events that have caused those who have affixed their signatures hereto to firmly believe they could soon find themselves compelled to declare their freedom from the unlawful shackles of an illicit government.DECLARATION OF LIBERTY
As a necessary predicate for them to establish in the court of world opinion the legitimacy of such a declaration, the undersigned hereby commence by reaffirming the following truths to be self-evident:
[Affix Signatures]
Hmmm. This leaves me wondering … for the possible future edification of my friend, of course … were such a document to find itself posted on the internet and digitally signed by as many as 75 million or more patriotic verified voters, would the regime really still be inclined to send them all to jail …for insurrection … or, for that matter, for exercising their right to Speak Freely?Comment:
Great document. Well stated. It should be sent to every Republican member of Congress and to every Republican state governor..
Technically speaking, such an insurrectionist government would lack moral authority to continue imposing itself, but the problem is that leftists have spent decades undermining the very notion of “moral authority” and disputing any attempt to identify sources of moral authority. Furthermore, an illegitimate government would not need to jail millions of dissidents, it would only need to hammer the most visible leaders of such a movement to scare millions into submission. So the tactic would be to say, “says who?” all the while disappearing rebel leaders.
Hmm...., I wonder how quickly the Progressive Marxist/DSA Democrat Commies would impose stronger STASI laws and methods in America?
Indeed, haven't we seen that with the DOJ/FBI raid on the homes of Trump supporters and those protecting their homes from terrorists BLM/Antifa groups and recently the home of Rudy Giuliani...
