The Declaration didn’t claim “a right to leave if a majority wished.” You’re making that up.

Dude. You can read it for yourself.

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Yes, it pretty much says that.

As usual, you ignore the moral basis stated clearly in the words you yourself posted from the Declaration.
