∙ 9y agoI'm assuming that you mean "where" and not "what" when you ask this, so here's the answer: "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." To paraphrase, this is stating that when a govenment no longer protects the rights of "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness", then the governed have the right to abolish that government for the good of the people.
People have the right to institute a new government at any time. The real issue is how do you get rid of the old government.

They mean that the people have a right to choose the government and when the government doesn't serve the people they have the right to change the government.
alter or abolish the government
The people have the right to change government when it no longer works for the people.
That man has the natural rights given by God and that when the government no longer protects these rights that the people have the right to change the government. He then lists the reason/charges against the King to back up that the king is no longer protecting these rights. The basic message and belief is that the people of the 13 colonies should be free from British rule.
1. That governments are formed by people for protection and services 2. When that government no longer serves the people it is the right of the people to change the government.
1st Amendment.
The First Amendment protects people's right to free speech, meaning they may not be stopped from criticizing the government. It also protects the right of people to peaceably assemble, meaning that people can get together to protest actions of the government as long as they do so peaceably. Lastly it protects the right of the people to petition the government for redress of grievances, meaning that Congress cannot shut anyone out of at least raising complaints about issues. In sum, it asssures that the government does not get complete control of how the government runs the way a monarchy, like Great Britain was able to do.
It protects us from acts of government
Yes It is not only the right but the duty of all people to rebel against the government when the government no longer serves the interest of the people. The people are the country. We elect people to represent us to the world. When those representatives no longer act on the peoples voice it is time for the people to rise up and replace it with one that does.
It means that people have a right to dissent against a government that they feel has grown tyrannical and no longer represents the majority of citizens.
