    FUN FACT literally the 2nd paragraph of the declaration of Independence gives all Americans the right to overthrow the government if it infringes on your rights and implement a government that better respects your rights

    (note, depending on the transcription or print it might not even have paragraphs)

      The Declaration of Independence doesn’t give Americans any rights, because it’s not part of the Constitution and it’s not law.
