Noah Webster 1787 - An Examination of the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution

The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any band of regular troops that can be, on any pretence, raised in the United States.
