toc =Declaration of Independence (Final) = Declaration of Independence North Korea We the people of North Korea are writing this declaration of independence because our government at hand is abusing their power. Our government in North Korea is abusing their power by neglecting and taking away our natural rights. Every individual is entitled to natural rights and in no way should they be taken away. These natural rights include life, liberty, justice, property, and the pursuit of happiness. When a group of people forms a government, they do so to protect their natural rights, not to put them in jeopardy. If this government takes advantage of the power given to them, then the founders of the government have the right to abolish it and create a new, more suitable government. In the case of a few mistakes by the government the people must not over react. In the case of repeated mistakes by the government, the people can abolish it. Some people may think our cause is absurd but let us show them the facts to second our motion. It has executed political prisoners, opponents of the regime, repatriated defectors, and many others accused with crimes but without any judicial process It has abducted and kept about 480 civilians abducted in the Korean War in detention centers It has used methods of abuse and torture like electric shocks, public nakedness, confinement for up to several weeks, and being hung by the wrists It has prohibited women from live and births and in some cases there have been forced abortions. It has denied food and water or medical attention to prisoners It has stolen food from prisoners at detention centers It has sent people accuse of crimes to detention centers without a fair trial It only gives lawyers and fair trial to those accused of political crimes It has taken away people’s privacy by monitoring their phone calls It has divided people into loyalty-based classes which determines employment, education, residency, medical facilities, and supermarkets It has manipulated how people vote for the government It has criticized free voting and competition of political parties as capitalist decay It has eliminated minorities from the government We the people of North Korea need a government that better reflects our values and principles. The dictatorship leading us currently is unacceptable. In no way are we declaring that we are enemies with the current government, but simply a different government doing what we think is right. As a free country we will create a new government that will protect our natural rights and not abuse the power given to us. That is why, we the citizens of North Korea, are breaking away from the current government and creating a new free country.
