And the idea is that EVERYONE would rise against such a threat.

As I said, single armed persons are pointless. But when the populace of a nation as a whole are trained and armed very few governments could withstand their assault.
Your people were an example of this:
accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed
A few brave patriots cant do much, but when the population is galvanized change is not just possible but inevitable.


Now open question here, what fault can you find in this statement? Seems to be something all can agree on yes? Is this not a reasonable statement?
Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --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.
