Did you even graduate High School, coadie?

Come on, this is getting old. The question was asked assuming the other posters position. There seems to be an idea that legislation prevents "true freedom" whatever that is.... he then pointed out that some anarchists still believe in law, I pointed applied their own principle. In other words, it wasn't my own position. Come on, keep up, Coadie.

It would work for everyone.

As long as that law is not state-sponsored.

I just tried another word that would work for you. Again.. free is free.

foreign to John Locke - Thomas Jefferson... so...

Does that mean it can't happen or that you don't think it can happen...

Who makes sure these 20 villagers this idea would work for are keeping the law? Who makes sure the laws that are passed are done right?

When does the 20 villagers who become a "state" or when does it become "state-sponsored?"

I am free. You say I am not. Explain why I am not (maybe this will work since the whole definition thing would not)

Recruiting Kids for Obama's Agenda
President Barack Obama's budget has added more than $100 billion of federal taxpayers' money to what is called "education," so that means it will be spent by alumni of the Saul Alinsky school of radical community organizing and/or the Chicago Democratic machine.

Obama is using the public schools to recruit a private army of high-schoolers to "build on the movement that elected President Obama by empowering students across the country to help us bring about our agenda." We now know that Obama's "agenda" is to move the United States into European-style Socialism.

Obama's internet outreach during his campaign, Obama for America, has been renamed Organizing for America (OFA) in order to recruit students to join a cult of Obama and become activists for his goals. The teacher of an 11th-grade government class in Massillon, Ohio, passed out the sign-up sheet, headed with Obama's "O" logo, asking students to become interns for Organizing for America. We're indebted to Pamela Geller of AtlasShrugs.com for putting the curriculum on the internet.

These interns will be given an intensive nine-week training course using comprehensive lesson plans. Assigned readings include Saul Alinsky's notorious Rules for Radicals, Stir It Up: Lessons from Community Organizing and Advocacy by the left-wing activist Rinku Sen, and particular sections of Dreams From My Father dealing with Obama's days as a community organizer in Chicago.
There are a lot of areas to get even,. get revenge.



Quote:
Rinku Sen is the president and executive director of the Applied Research Center (ARC) and publisher of ColorLines magazine. A leading figure in the racial justice movement, Rinku has positioned ARC as the home for media and activism on racial justice. She has extensive practical experience on the ground, with expertise in race, feminism, immigration, and economic justice.

Now you are getting ignorant on us again. You can't answer the simplest questions.

Re: Reaching tentacles of the Social Justice movem

A law that I will follow just cropped up... my wife told me to shut down the computer and spend time with her... since I wish to maintain an exceptional relationship with my wife, I will VOLUNTARILY choose to pursue that endeavor and shut down my computer and spend time with her.

Have a good night, Max. I'll admit, I don't have all the answers. I don't proclaim to. I do like to discuss - even mindlessly argue as you may think. While you may think I'm not hearing you, I am. I probably will not change my mind, though.

You caused it. It was a valid assumption based on one of your comments.
