As always, the burden of proof is on the actor asserting a claim. In the case of statists, it's entirely on them to prove that they can do any of the things they claim the authority to do, and as you've so eloquently pointed out in numerous posts, they have no evidence that they have the authority to do this sans pointing a gun at you and threatening violence.

Also, I'm never going to get tired of your "conversations with a statist" pieces. They're amusing, and I've had at least part of them many times lol
