No colonist was allowed to hold political offices or upper levels of military rank; so, all the politically ambitious people staged a revolution. "Taxation without representation" was not just an issue because of lack of representation, it underpinned a deep desire by ambitious men who wanted to be that representation. | |

Jun 17 at 16:52 | comment | added | Shimbo | I'm not sure how this answers the question? It seems like you're just saying "people with guns overthrow the government" (which is potentially true of any constitutional order). Are you suggesting that 'politicians' would attempt to gain positions in the Police in order to overthrow the government? | |
