“Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God” Benjamin Franklin saw resistance to arbitrary power as so fundamental to the American revolution, that he recommended that phrase for the great seal of these United States. And if you’re ever confused about who the tyrants are? Just read the Declaration of Independence.

"War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few”

The British called it treason. The Sons of Liberty called it self-defense. The incredible, and almost totally forgotten story behind the charge against the king in the Declaration of Independence: “For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences”

American independence wasn’t built on complaints about bad policy. It was built on opposition to unconstitutional power. They were against usurpation. Not mere grievances. That word isn’t in the Declaration of Independence, even though that’s how most people describe the list of charges against the King. They’re actually called “abuses and usurpations” and “injuries and usurpations“
