We Need Some Redress

If the American revolutionaries lived in the USA today and did exactly what they did in the 1770s, they would almost certainly be arrested, charged, and prosecuted for incitement, sedition, or domestic terrorism. Even the **Declaration of Independence itself**, with its charge that people have a right to “alter or abolish” a government that violates their rights, could be interpreted in a modern context as advocating the violent overthrow of a constitutional order — a potential violation of laws against sedition. 

The line between patriot and criminal is drawn not by speech or action alone — but by power, perspective, and time.

It’s a reminder that history doesn’t just record events — it interprets them, and those interpretations shift with who holds authority, who tells the story, and when it’s told.

The nature of ones economics will dictate the character of the people, just like nature (eco system) dictates the evolving attributes of all life forms and the world they live in.  

Nice work Nigel.
