Yeah, the silence is deafening.

I guess its more fun to argue about Rush Limbaugh, right?

Done toldja what to do often enough.

It's down to box three, where we refuse to enforce their asinine laws.

"I consider trial by jury as the only anchor yet devised by man, by which a government can be held to the principles of its constitution."
-Thomas Jefferson, in a letter to Thomas Paine, 1789.

Also, you should be influencing and suborning those who enforce those laws, for without those willing to obey it, the voice of tyranny cries unheard.

And?

Im just a simple citizen. I have no real power. I have no way of taking on the "powers-that-be".

I see these bastards every day, but have no real way of fighting them.

The first 2 are great - asshole uninsured drivers - who pays if they hit you and put your wife in the hospital?

Cities with deficits - like newspapers with deficits only we can't let them close up can we? If they can make money and push drivers to get insurance, all good in my book. And yeah, I hate insurance companies too, but that's another thread.

Last one - wrong place wrong time, but if you're going to be "in a bad part of town" so to speak, you'd be stupid not to think bad things might happen.

I have a friend who's a cyclist nut, thinks every road belongs to him as much as any car, especially the busy narrow ones. "Ok, fine, when you get hit you can complain about how unfair it is. You'll be right and in the hospital."

Used to be you'd take out insurance against just such a situation. But that wasn't as profitable as the insurance companies liked, so they lobbied to legislate themselves more customers.

Anything for a buck, eh?

You should start a police state fan club or something.

So, er...when do we start shooting?

I know a LOT of folks ready for this. Fuck the new romans.

I'm not seeing a lot of point in shooting, Wulf. Fact is, there aren't enough of us - yet. And, there likely won't be enough until after it's too late. I dunno.

Please, start. Then you will die, and we won't have to listen to your ramblings.
