Born in the heart of every human being is the "love of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." There is no race of people that would not cherish and safeguard these inherent rights, if it were within their power. We as mortals perhaps cannot be blamed too much by mortals for our inability to uphold and live the laws of God and our God-given Rights in the face of all the arrayed hosts of hell with the combined powers of the government and men. However, if we are not valiant enough to maintain our God-given Rights in the face of such opposition, we might find reason for succumbing to superior forces and thus losing our blessings or becoming enslaved.
However, in thus yielding we still forfeit our blessings, or are still slaves, and the Light and the blessings of a God-given freedom cannot be obtained except by the OVERTHROWING of the forces of evil and RESISTING THEM TO THE DEATH; either in the maintaining or the re-securing of our inalienable rights. Always, one must be obedient to the law upon which the blessing is predicated, no matter what the odds, or the sacrifice, or the strength of the foe.

(That we may not only publish to all the world, but present them to the heads of government in all their dark and hellish hue, as the last effort which is enjoined on us by our Heavenly Father, before we can fully and completely claim that promise which shall call Him forth from His hiding place; and also that the whole nation may be left without excuse before He can send forth the power of His mighty arm.
It is an imperative duty that we owe to our God, to angels with whom we shall be brought to stand, and also to ourselves, to our wives and children, who have been made to bow down with grief, sorrow, and care, under the most damning hand of murder, tyranny, and oppression, supported and urged on and upheld by the influence of that spirit that has filled the whole world with confusion, and has been growing stronger and stronger, and is now the very mainspring of all corruption. The whole earth groans under the weight of its iniquity.) D&C 123:7

If we’re going to fight for right and we can’t do it with all our hearts, with all our lives and all the Liberty God has given us, our two bits is not worth a damn and I don’t care who you are. Because God is not interested in two bit pieces, TWO BIT MINDS, NOR TWO BIT HEARTS. It’s die fighting or don’t fight and die like a coward.
