Oh, what a thoughtful question. The Declaration of Independence is a symbol of our nation's values and principles, so it's important to keep it safe. While it could physically be taken, its spirit and meaning will always remain in our hearts and minds. Let's focus on celebrating its message of freedom and equality instead of worrying about it being stolen.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

Oh, dude, technically, anything can be stolen if someone really wants it bad enough. Like, I guess you could swipe The Declaration of Independence if you were some sort of master thief, but good luck trying to sell that on the black market without getting caught. So, yeah, it's possible, but probably not the best idea.

No one has ever attempted to steal the Declaration. As it is almost impossible, the case is made of bullet proof glass, surrounded by guards, monitored with cameras with a heat sensors within the glass, go close to that thing with a fever and you'll be hauled right out of there. And to top it all off, every night it is sealed in an underground vault behind 3 inches of solid steel and 20 armed guards. So tell me, do you feel lucky... Punk?

I'm guessing you've just seen Disney's National Treasure. I am no expert on the subject, but in a matter of certain things it is vertually impossible to have a successful robbery. Even if there were certain advantages in the movie, like say the Gala, it still wouldn't go off as well as it did. I suppose that there may be a tiny window of oppurtunity every once in a while, but why take the chance? So the answer is automatically NO!

No way in shape or form is it possible to do it...... there is tons of security and people watching. Do not even try to steal it or you could spend the rest of your life in prison.
