"Our founders understood the danger of runaway government power and tyranny"

I doubt our founders could imagine how corrupt the government they founded would become, such that it would authorize the murder of over 55 million children of the womb. Maybe the founders figured that true Americans would indict, try, convict and sentence such corrupt government officials and their collaborators and put an end to such genocidal crime against humanity.

So far it looks like the founders didn't figure right.
