The Founders fully expected the American people to rise up against any tyrant who would threaten their liberty. We have betrayed their faith and our posterity.

Not to make any excuses for the Founders’ state of mind, but in their day and age it was rifle against rifle, sword against sword, and not semi-automatic rifle against motorized armor, helicopter and air power.
Seen any country lately whose citizenry has overturned a tyrannical government unless the military stepped in as was the case in Spain and Chile?
“Ah”, you say, “but what about the Arab Spring, where civilians threw out their tyrannical leaders?”
Who stepped in? Who else but Uncle Stupid and Uncle Nato.
