Do we have the right .?

Question

If our government does nothing about people walking into the country by the millions . Sould that give the people the right to take action . We have a govenment that is failing the voice of the People .So does that give the right to the state and local law to take action .

Answer 1

I don't think people will stand up against our government about anything untill it's too late. But then people will just say, "well you voted for your officials". But that is stupid.
Yesd we have the right, but no it won't happen.

Answer 2

The state and local governments are worse than the feds. The only 2 ways something legitimate will be done is if a Federal Official takes a stand that the citizens want or worse some catastrophe happens involving illegal immigrants and law abiding citizens where law abiding citizens decide to take up arms against all foreigners and possibly the politicians who supported foreigners over citizens rights.

Answer 3

Yes this is not even my opinion. The Supreme Court ruled over 100 years ago in Briscoe VS the bank of Kentucky that if the federal government can not do its job then the states can assume those powers until the federal government wakes up and decides to act.

Answer 4

As bad as we may want to, we as a people can't afford to take the law into our own hands. Only by the vote can we change things, and even then there's no guarantee we get what we thought we were going for. No one is more displeased with illegal immigration than I am but I'm not going to comprimise myself and my country because others choose to.

Answer 5

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.--That to secure these rights, 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. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and 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. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security

Answer 6

Well people in Washington that are supposed to represent us, no longer do so. So states need to keep illegals out, by whatever they deem as necessary, We have a president in la la land so he can't be reeled in, so I think in areas where the illegals could be patrolled with local crime watch groups. Arrest employers who have undocumented workers and most of all, send them home, all of them.

Answer 7

You don't have the "right" to take action. In the USA, as in any civilized nation, the RULE OF LAW prevails. You know full well, or should know, that state and local laws have no jurisdiction over immigration. Guys a lot smarter than you and me made the rules a long time ago.

So. You don't have the right, either to take the law into your own hands or expect a lower jurisdiction to do so either.

Answer 8

Within the limits of the law, yes. But no further.

Answer 9

yes because in our constitution, it give us the right to do whatever the hell we want to. but wait, does that mean we can stop them from ruining our government since they are free to do what they want??? they are THE PEOPLE also???

Answer 10

Why don't you start your own revolution? America has done it before. Be an 'insurgent'
