In retrospect this is a recapitulation of the struggle that our Founding Fathers endured – our War of Independence from tyranny. The philosophical framework for liberation from tyranny is laid out in our Declaration of Independence. In order to have creative pursuit of happiness you must first have political and economic liberty – human liberty. In order to have human liberty you must first have the right to life – the right to live – the right to defend your and your family’s life.

First life, then liberty and then pursuit of happiness.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness…” Thomas Jefferson
