At what points (if any) is peacetime regime change acceptable?

[beesley]

Have your say. I'm thinking about the question but want to hear your thoughts first.

[Chips]

Never.

[Beet]

These truths are self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, and among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

[Ferguson97]

Could you be a bit more specific?

Define 'regime change' and define 'acceptable'.
