I know that we are suppose to have a government that is for the people but it seems that isnt the truth anymore and our civil rights and the constitution seem to become history.

That would depend a lot on what the revolutionaries were fighting for and also what they were fighting against.
I would join in a revolution to restore government by the Constitution as intended by the founding fathers back when the federal government was first formed. That's why I currently support the Constitution Party in it's efforts to do change the 2 party-1 agenda system that is crippling our country. If change can be brought about peacefully through the ballot box, that's the best way to do it. If not, that's why we have the 2nd Amendment. The writers of the Constitution knew that citizens must have a means of defense against those that mean them harm and tyrannical government.
I would not join in a revolution that was intended to end our form of government and replace it with a radical change such as a monarchy, a socialist state (although we're getting close to that now), or a dictatorship.

I would be on the side of the constitution, a government by the people, for the people.

I would be on the side of the people which would also be on the side of the government because We, the people, are the government. We must simply choose to exercise our rights and therefore prevent a revolution. If there is an American Revolution -- and we are very close -- it will be between illegal immigrants, illegal immigrant supporters vs. law-abiding citizens and legal immigrants. Congress will take a back seat and will be impotent unless it can find enough soldiers to fight the citizens or the government chooses to fight on the side of the citizens.

The war we fought for seven years against Great Britain was not a revolution! It was a War for American Independence. We didn't overthrow the British Crown. We merely got a final decree of divorce. Oliver Cromwell led a revolution. George Washington led a fight to part ways with Great Britain.

The side that was fighting for restoration of our constitution and i would say that's the peoples side since all our gov. is doing is shredding our rights via no habeas corpus for example.2nd amendment all the way.
