What is Insurrection...really

By Douglas V. Gibbs

What is insurrection?  We seem to be hearing the word all of the time, right now, and frankly, people are confused.

Is insurrection a move to burn down cities and set up sovereign zones claiming to be separate from the United States as we saw in Ferguson, Missouri; Baltimore, Maryland; Seattle, Washington; and Portland, Oregon?  Or was that simply a peaceful protest?

Is insurrection a bunch of patriots descending upon The Capitol rallying in support of the President of the United States, but dissatisfied with what they considered to be irregularities in the election, carrying out their rights enumerated in the First Amendment (Religion, Speech, Press, Assembly, and to Petition the government for a redress of grievances); a scene that got a little out of control because of a small number of radicals (and likely infiltrators/plants) broke some windows and urged everyone to enter the building?

Is insurrection a group of politicians seizing control of a government, ignoring the original intent of the constitution and proclaiming that their interpretation is the way it is even though everyone knows it's a tyrannical power grab and not in line with the original intent of the language used in the U.S. Constitution?

Amendment 14, Section 3 states that insurrection has been committed when someone who has taken an oath to the Constitution of the United States rebels against the same (the Constitution).

Who's the insurrectionists?  ⬜ The violent radicals burning the cities?  ⬜ The patriots who descended upon The Capitol?  ⬜ The government whores of the Democratic Party (and a good number of Republicans) who have decided the Constitution means what they say it means, despite their interpretation being in conflict with the original definitions and principles, and then using their propagandized version of the Constitution to seize power and control the United States passing laws the federal government never had any authority to pass, and acting in a manner the Founding Fathers would never have approved of?

check all that apply...

It seems the democrats and their cronies have accused Americans of insurrection, but it is they who truly are committing insurrection.  They are indeed working to overthrow the Constitution which is the established government of the United States of America.
