According to the Declaration of Independence when do the people have the right to overthrow their government?

According to the Declaration of Independence, governments are created to protect the rights granted to all people, known as unalienable rights. That means they cannot be taken away. Governments get their power from the people they govern. If the government cannot protect the rights of the people or if the government becomes destructive of the rights of the people, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish the government. If a government has been in operation for a long time, the Declaration indicates that peaceful means should be attempted to solve the problems, via the ballot box, laws, etc. However, if the government has become dictatorial or a unconstitutional monarchy then violent revolution may be the only course for the people.

What three rights does the Declaration of Independence say cannot be taken away?

Misleading question, as all Americans have the right to Life, Liberty and the persuit of happiness, these rights can be taken away (you become inprisioned, thus loose any or all of these rights) once you encroach on anothers right to persue the same, i.e. you no longer have the right for persuit of happiness if you take away anothers right to life.
