No amount of deaths are adequate cause for suspending the constitutional rights of our citizens. If the Feds can't adequately protect our citizens from criminal activities w/o trampling on our rights then its time for us to reorganize into different geo-political structures which may.
No, it is time WE take responsibility back for our actions and control our own lives and quit abrogating it to some asshole who will promise anything to get us to give them money for nothing (ie taxes).
Right on. Worried about childrens security? Protect them yourself, organise neighborhood watch, arm the little tykes to the teeth, pay private security firms, whatever.
Once solutions offered from D.C. include suspension of our civil rights its time to put allt he options on the table, including considering the abandonment of the entire compact.
If we abandon democracy then we are admitting that ALL social systems are a failure.
I fail to see the inference there. Democracy doesn't work that well. Probably no government at all would be better. Let me quote yourself:

Same thing applies to most government functions.
