Yeah, well keep voting and watch it continue to change nothing. At some point you get past the point where that works.

I enjoyed you dodging all the pertinent questions because you're nothing more than a partisan hack.

The most disappointing part is that the plot did not work
Getting scum out of government is very American

I was just reading about them, and their ideology is kind of all over the place. They read mostly like extremist libertarians, if we want to put a label on them. Not sure how you can be an anarchist while supporting the Bill Of Rights.
Mostly they sound like a bunch of dumb Michigan rednecks.

I hope they got their mail in votes already submitted for the election.

I don't say this often unless I am just busting balls but in this case you are dumber than frick.
The American Revolution was fought against the rule of a monarch. The English kings and queens derived their power from divine right. Richard I once famously exclaimed, "I am born in a rank which recognizes no superior but God, to whom alone I am responsible for my actions". He also coined the motto Dieu et mon droit which you can still find on the UK Coat of Arms. You see the colonial Americans had no say in their governance they were ruled at the whim of an all powerful King second only to God in power. There was no chance to vote him out or challenge his power in a court system.
Governor Whitmer derives her power not from divine right but the democratic vote of the people of Michigan. There are multiple ways to legally remove her from office or oppose any overreach. If it is the will of the people of Michigan then she could be recalled or voted out.
You say these people are literally no different from the founding fathers but it is hard to begin to argue that when the founding fathers had no legal recourse save petitioning God and him coming down and telling George III he was wrong. You could bleat on about how Whitmer is a tyrannical autocrat but nothing you scream to the heavens will make it so. She is a duly democratically elected Governor for whom there is more than one legal way within the constitution to remove her from power by the will of the people. To suggest the founding fathers were literally the same as this group of nutbags is like equating chalk and cheese.
Governors in the US are like shite you buy on Amazon. If they don't meet the expectations of the buyer they can choose to buy a different product next time. In the event the buyers feel it necessary to act quicker they just have to get together and file a return and pick a new product.
Given your take on these fine gentlemen's plans and keeping the same perspective, how would you argue the rioters actions are any different than the Sons of Liberty on Griffin's Warf?

While not in the constitution the phrase "We hold these truths to be self-evident" has always troubled me. I am not sure who drafted that line but Jefferson/Adam/Livingston or Sherman gave people too much credit or the we just referred to them. The People need more explanation.
In regards to the government, the 2A is there to allow for the people to have a means to prevent the government from taking the people's right to choose their government.
The 2A wasn't drafted so a group of numbskull Torys that didn't like Washington could mount up and kidnap him by force try him for treason in a shack in a backwoods holler in Western Virginia and execute him. The same as it isn't there so some group of idiots from Michigan who just found out a democratic republic isn't like Burger King where they can always have it their way.
Tyranny and tyrannical are words that get thrown around a lot in modern American but the vast majority of people in the US and a few in this thread simply have no concept of what it is like to like in a tyrannical state.
We still have the right to vote for our leaders and elections have consequences. The 2A is not for the few who don't like what their democratically elected leadership does it is for the day that a president or other leader decides to declare him or herself king or emporer. Fortunately, most people recognize this since if they didn't assassination attempts on sitting US presidents would be as common as flies around an outhouse.
This merry band of morons are not patriots they are seditionists.
