I know that the following phrase is in the Declaration of Independence. It is still utter nonsense. Saying that government is instituted in order to "secure life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" is like saying the KKK and the NAACP are instituted in order to promote racial harmony and mutual understanding. Ain't gonna ever happen, and if you think about it, it is obvious why. It goes against the very nature of the beast.
