Re: Wringing-the-Neck of Empty Ritual.

Dear History Buff: I'm a problem solver who's not inclined to give
empty opinions. If I had spent as much time reading the words of
others as you have, I would not have had time to write the New
Constitution. Second to none in the World, I am both smart and
analytical to consider the effects of the things I've included from
many, many angles. Picking and choosing ideas from others could never
have been as efficient as I have been. — John A. Armistead — Patriot

> --MJThe power of the statists to exercise unrestrained force against people goes to the essence of all political systems.  Being defined  even by political scientists   as an entity that exercises a monopoly on the use of violence within a given geographic area, the state must continue to exercise such unquestioned powers, particularly at times when its credibility and respect are in rapid decline.  The people employed to carry out such powers  be they police officers, TSA employees, militarists, bureaucrats of various stripes, etc.  are the kinds of sociopaths who are eager to exercise such unrestricted violence against others.  The state is the playground bully writ large, and state officials are unwilling to hold their bullies accountable for their wrongs because, to do so, would be to deny the very monopoly status that defines their system. -- Butler Shaffer
