John Locke believed that citizens have the right to rebel against a tyrannical government if it violates their natural rights to life, liberty, and property. He argued that government exists to protect these rights, and if it fails to do so, citizens have the right to overthrow it.
The main argument that was made in favor of the Bill of Rights was that it would guard against the emergence of a tyrannical government. The anti-Federalists, in particular, fought to have the Bill of Rights included in the Constitution.

John Locke had the largest impact on the American founders. His ideas on natural rights, government by consent of the governed, and the right to revolt against a tyrannical government heavily influenced the language and principles found in the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution.
A major argument against the ratification of the US Constitution in 1787 was the absence of a Bill of Rights, which critics believed left individual liberties vulnerable to government infringement. Opponents, known as the Anti-Federalists, feared that a strong central government could become tyrannical and limit the freedoms of citizens. They argued that the Constitution concentrated too much power in the federal government at the expense of state sovereignty. This debate highlighted the tension between the need for a unified nation and the protection of individual rights.
When the government is corrupt or in any way tyrannical we the people have the RIGHT to take it back to make it honest and free again.That time is now!
