You cannot as an individual simply take your freedom. That only works if enough people around you take their freedom at the same time. But they won't and you know it. The government will come looking for who did whatever it was they told you not to do, and your neighbors, friends, and even family members will gladly snitch you out. Then they'll watch idly as 50 men with guns either take you away or kill you. Since you are just an individual, you stand no chance, even if you're well armed.
To take your freedom, you must first create a reality in which instead of snitching and watching, those neighbors, friends, and family members would all take their freedom the moment you do. And all their neighbors, friends, and family members must be ready to take their freedom also.
That requires massive coordination. There has to be a signal, or an agreed upon time, upon which everyone, everywhere, from coast to coast, suddenly starts ignoring claims on authority.
But the real problem is that nobody cares about your signal or agreed-upon time. They'll ignore your idea, and they'll still just watch idly as you get taken away or shot.
