Congress can make no law that is unconstitutional on it's face. If such a law be passed, it is the duty of the president to repudiate it; and it must not be signed. If such a law is signed, it is the duty of the agents of the government to refuse to enforce it. If the agents of the state attempt to enforce it, then they must be resisted with force, at all costs.
Anything less is submission to tyranny, and the diminution of citizens, to subjects; or worse.
Chris Byrne will not obey.
And no, he's not a bank executive, and he doesn't work for AIG. Nor does he make over $250,000 a year. He's just another hard-working American who aspires to one day do so.
UPDATE:
All Chris' talk about "duty" reminded me of a quote from another document...
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
What document was that again?
