    You shouldn’t worry about this. You should laugh more at sovcits, second amendment fanboys, militia enthusiasts, gun nuts, and even (real and not “conservative right liberal using the word cause it’s less common”) libertarians. Because allowing some jerks to decide these things for you is fine, right? We’ll vote for someone better and they’ll make more laws, we don’t need fallbacks and overrides to remove cancerous laws by force.

    I think I like the “fallbacks and overrides” pair, because it complements the “checks and balances” one. Directly opposite, but with the same spirit. Something of Tao Te Ching in it.
