or is it cowardice if you don't put the constitution in action and fight for your right to pursue 'happiness"..even against tyranny and its agents

This question is a matter of perception and the answers are many and vary. I personally see the value in both pending the situation

That summarizes the problem so I can handle it. This is an individual problem. Will the solution put you in jail constitutionally or is it the everyday type? At work, if I know something is wrong and I'm a little better than the person, perhaps or only can see it because they can't see themselves and I can't see myself? In any case, if I am instead a couple of steps up I can fix them an it. That's where brotherly love comes in. I noticed I was always having problems and others didn't seem to and others, everyone loved. That's the one who knows how to handle everything, I think through intuition. They know anyone can break bad at any moment, but they are sane and don't have that problem. Two troubled people see each other as the enemy and can't see the sane, unafraid person. Two frightened dogs get into it when an intuitive person knows he can handle it, if he can, and isn't, you might say, part of the problem by being the solution. He either knows the solution or sees the poblem coming and analyzes it until he finds the solution and prevents it from coming. The naive falls in a hole. He's bogged down with problems and can't think on his feet. I would think an aware person would learn from someone or the great minds of history and have the tools for an emergency or else life is one emergency after another and that is all that wakes most people up. I found out the hard way, Nations never do. The whole world is squeeky wheels, how can we not know? The solution starts at home, small problems to big ones. We wait for too late leaders abdicating the throne instead of doing our part to find solutions and so forth down that road, the right road. We need to be king/priests.

Unfortunately Yes. We are all just creatures of circumstances. To swim against the tide is not easy or possible. Life is too short and precious to spend all its time in fighting against some thing or other. Neither we are born to change the system of the majority.

It is never okay to suffer injustice in silence whether you choose to do so or not. Even if there are limitations to what we can do, we have to strive to find ways of fighting for our rights. Otherwise, we will continue to suffer from this.

Sure. Pick your battles. Sometimes yelling about what's wrong, causes you to miss something the could be very right. It's an old saying, but there's some truth in it:
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change.
The courage to change the things I can.
And the wisdom to know the difference.

You must do yuor karma i.e. you must act. Not suffer injustice in silence. That is what Lork Krishna taught to us Hindus. You must fight till your last drop of blood and not bother about the consequences. Leave the consequences to God.

Depends on what one considers just/unjust, and how much one is willing to suffer in order to avoid fighting.
