Get a grip.

I know a hell of a lot more about the history than you do. Read the link I gave you. He put down a tax rebellion with military force.

That's not a "crazy libertarian" thing to do by any stretch of the term.

Right you are -- so you cannot take that Washington quote as Libertarian raving.

"How soon we forget history... Government is not reason. Government is not eloquence. It is force. And, like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master."
George Washington

Any enforcement of the law is use of force.

Good night silly folks

So you are saying it is immoral to enforce law because it is force and force is wrong ?

Its enough to make me wonder if he pays his taxes.

Is this guy a legal resident ? Can't we just get him deported or something ?
Somebody label him a terrorist and lets call homeland security on his ass.

Whoooooosh all the way to Guantanamo baby.
Jesus would approve.

Just like fire. Fire is wrong. And no-one should advocate it. Except pharmacists.

This statement is so absurd I had to quote it for posterity.

A meter maid issuing a parking ticket, a doorman checking IDs and a trash truck picking up only sorted recycling all involve no force whatsoever.

All are enforcing the law.

You are completely off your rocker.

Good night silly folks

I don't wanna associate with montestruc nomore. It's my fundamental right to my moral principals and forcing me to hang out with him any longer is immoral. It's just like slavery really.

Nevermind, found him.

And no, he hasn't been around. The first post of that thread was his last comment. He still has a membership, though.
