“政府的正当权力来自于被统治者的认可;当任何 政府形式危及这些目标时,人民就有权予以改变或废除并基于最有可能给他们带来安全与幸福的原则和权 力分配形式建立新政府。。。。”
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 they are among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among them, deriving their just power 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.
因为美国政府给与人民有推翻它的权利,所以美国人民要有拥枪权。
