The Declaration of Independence is one of the greatest political documents ever written. And now…I think we need another one. This one is not written to a tyrannical king, but to our fellow countrymen…if we can even call them that anymore. I don't say this to be divisive, I say it because it's the truth. And while all of us can accept that the truth can be divisive at times…for those who use offense as a substitute for an argument, truth is divisive all the time…because your real problem is not with my tone or privilege or any other contrivance, your problem is with objective reality.
