<td valign="top"><!-- CLIPPED FROM: http://www.realityzone.com/currentperiod.html -->Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are<br />
in almost every kingdom in Europe. The supreme power in America cannot<br />
enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are<br />
armed, and constitute a force superior to any band of regular troops that<br />
can be, on any pretence, raised in the United States. A military force, at<br />
the command of Congress, can execute no laws, but such as the people<br />
perceive to be just and constitutional; for they will possess the power, and<br />
jealousy will instantly inspire the inclination, to resist the execution of<br />
a law which appears to them unjust and oppressive.<br />
