You cannot break the law, you can only break yourself against the law.
When Moses brought down the tablets, what was inscribed on them did not impart laws that benefited him directly. Rather, they were laws that he had interpreted from a higher power as a benevolent gift to all his people.
Similarly, imo, the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were revealed by our fore-fathers, not in defence of a power grab, but as a practical solution to the impracticality of British governance at that time. When the Declaration declares:
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 among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness
They're not whistling dixie, they are declaring that the individual has power, and anyone who denies that truism is destined to break themselves, be it one who depends on the violation of another, or one who allows themselves to be violated: you will be punished if you do not acknowledge the law.
So my request of you is to bring yourself more in line with the law - the real law - to stop breaking yourself and others against the truth - and once the truth has been revealed to you, to reveal it to others.
