"Our government teaches the whole people by example. If the government becomes the lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it INVITES ANARCHY." Louis Brandeis
THE UPRISING
Faced with the lawlessness, lies, and deceit
Our corrupt government laid at our feet
How are appalled people expected to respond
Lawlessness in kind breaks with each coming dawn
Laws too absurd for our minds to envelop
Regulations forcing revolutionary thoughts to develop
One final straw breaks a proverbial back
Will retribution come in the form of attack?
Appropriate changes can come with our constitution, still
Without bloodshed we'll regroup if the people have the will
An army of patriots can rise to the cause
They are made to be broken, unreasonable laws
