Radicalism not dangerous
(2) 2 Bill of Rights abrogated
In the next place, in full liberty mutual and universal for the communication
of facts and sentiments. On the part of the l To each House
of Parliament, liberty of express unrestricted liberty of discourse
communicating whatsoever they thought fit to the body of the
people. To the body of the people like liberty of communicating
whatsoever they thought fit to both Houses of Parliament.
To the body of the people like liberty of communication
whatsoever they thought fit to one another.
A One condition requisite was still wanting as all these liberties
though enjoyed in their utmost extent would still be insufficient
and that was something of a proportion between the
members of the standing army — actually trained and embodied
and trained as well as armed, and the number of that
part of the people who were armed indeed but without being
either embodied or trained or embodied who though they had
arms in their hands were unpractised in the military use of them
to any military purpose.
For this requisite the provision made at the time was the state of dependence
which the mistakes for its legal means of subordination
and its pay the military force was under such reference
to the pleasure will of the two Houses. [Then Consider'd as
security against the power of the Crown, this dependence was
however in a much greater degree nominal than real. For
in these days more especially a large military force was manifestly necessary
for the defence of the country against the exiled Monarch
supported by with an implacable enemy
of this country the King of France for his support. This security it was
therefore necessary to give up in practice, under pain of exposing
the country not only to greater danger, but to imminent
and certain and immediate destruction.
