We are at war! After thirty-two years of studying the Constitution and trying (unsuccessfully) to motivate people to stand up for their rights, very little surprises me anymore. We calmly tolerate violations enshrined in the Patriot Act; Edward Snowden is still vilified for exposing the tyranny of our numerous covert agencies; and millions eagerly sign up for Obamacare before the government imposed deadline. So I was more than a little surprised to find information that made me visibly angry yesterday. Robert Scott Bell sent me a weblink to an article related to the BLM standoff in Nevada that he wanted my comments on. He specifically wanted to know what I thought about certain clauses in the Nevada Constitution that presume to support the actions of the BLM. After reviewing the Nevada Constitution I was absolutely livid - and mentally willing to start the Second American Revolution myself. I have discovered what may be the most blatant documentation of tyranny that exists within the United States. When I teach my Constitution class, I try to impress upon my students that we are at war. It is an ideological war. A war of word and ideas - but a dangerous war because ideas have a way of transforming themselves into actions. Its quite possible that Adolf Hitler never killed anyone himself, however the toxic ideas he passionately espoused resulted in what may be the most famous genocide in world history. Im about to demonstrate that the Nevada Constitution contains an ideology that is just as dangerous as the philosophy of the Third Reich. Section 2 of Nevadas Constitution is titled Purpose of government. Let me begin with the good part: All political power is inherent in the people. Government is instituted for the protection, security and benefit of the people; and they have the right to alter or reform the same whenever the public good may require it. Excellent. This is perfectly in harmony with the clause of the Declaration of Independence that states: That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it. constitutionpreservation.org/articles/april-3-2014/we-are-war
