The Rule of Law

The founding basis of our nation, clearly stated by George Washington, is that we are a nation of laws. The highest law of the land is the United States Constitution, and all laws are derived from it. To depart from the clearly stated mandates of the Constitution invites extreme danger to the rights of citizens. The Constitution is not a document that gives you your rights, instead it is a document that protects your God-given rights and limits the power of government to certain boundaries.

It has been said time and time again that absolute power corrupts absolutely. The Constitution’s role is designed to limit the power, and thus the tyranny, of the government. At all times government must be actively limited to the powers expressly granted to it by the Constitution, especially when others try to expand those governmental powers or overstep their constitutionally mandated bounds. To do otherwise invites the spread of governmental tyranny and abuse like a cancer. Always remember, the government never gives you anything for free, it is always at the cost of part of your most precious asset, your freedom.

What we see below is a clear abuse of governmental power. Look carefully and you will see the face of tyranny.
