People used to be able to storm the courthouse and physically remove judges who were corrupt. The government militarizing the police and separating the elected officials from the people is the problem.

The corrupt should fear us (First amendment).

First plus one?

Yeah I totally meant the second amendment. I'm a retired federal official. I'm embarrassed with myself. Lol. I'm getting old, though, so I forgive my mistakes.

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… it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

--Thomas Jefferson
