RE: Manipulating footage to make cops look evil
Hence, the Constitution was written to both limit government and maximize our individual Rights.<<<
uh. I think we have seen enough evidence where that theory has been proven wrong. The Constitution hasn't limited government, and in actuality has completely shredded any protection of "individual rights" (in spite of including the Bill of Rights) as it foolishly relied on "checks and balances" between the 3 branches once the voters "decided" on representatives and magistrates.
Time to head back to 1783 for a "do over"..... but first, let's rediscover the dilemma faced in 1776! They all knew what they were to fight against, but in reality, were disharmonious about what they were fighting for. Thus the trepidation presented by our hero, Ben Martin.
The only point I was making was that the relationship between government and its people is adversarial and it becomes progressively worse as government grows in size.
And if that's true and I think it is, then everyone needs to questions the logic of having a government at all. With friends like that...
exactly. ...which makes the anarcho position so attractive these days. Just look internally within the LP. The "minarchos" are about fried to a crisp. Once we see government as a cancer... which will NEVER stop growing once initiated, we better figure out how to close the loopholes AnarchoVol presents. But we have got to put our solutions to the test before any "serious" money will follow.
