You changed the question Terry. However, you did not change your meaning. This all depends on your idea of Justice, in my view as everything is relative. My point of view is that idealy nothing justifies my violating anouther person, howver, the basis for my thinking is that I am no less a person than that person, and what would justify them violating me. My point of view is that in the real of reality, I do not trust anouther person to not violate my rights any more than I feel they should trust me not to violate thier rights Terry. There then becomes a dilema, if individuals do violate rights, and this gives them power, me as that individual person, and that other individual person who I have no justified cause to violate, are weaker, and this already established violater of persons now has power over us individualy, so much so that we can not prevent the violation of our rights. Now, do we resist in a manner we know to be futile Terry, or to we forge a union with the goal of the strength we need to resist this violation.
He who calls for reform, for expediency as your little blurb put it, is not in every case seeking to violate that first person, but rather seeking an effective way to resist, a way that he can see will work, as he believes for many seeing is believing, and he knows if he can see it, others can see it, and if they SEE IT Terry, maybee he believes that they will belive, and he just wants them to believe. Maybee his compromise for expediency is because he has a little baby boy, that he hopes will see and believe. Maybee he talked of writting a letter to tell the president what he feels is wrong about the course on wich the country was about to head, and stay if only he thought there was a chance it would be read, to see a worried look in his mothers eye from across the table and here her say "Don't go doing anything that will get you in trouble." and know that there was something so deeply wrong in his world that he beleived things had to change, that they had to be different, so that his son could live in a world with out fear from the very thing thats intended purpose should be to leave him with out fear. I hope that is clear enuff to you Terry, to tell you why I do not think a move, if not in any way decreasing Libertey, done for the sake of expedioency, is a move for Liberty, not against Liberty, and why your little blurb offends me so very deeply. --- In [email protected], "Terry L Parker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Main Entry: sub·ter·fuge > Pronunciation: 's&b-t&r-"fyüj > Function: noun > Etymology: Late Latin subterfugium, from Latin subterfugere to > escape, evade, from subter- secretly (from subter underneath; akin to > Latin sub under) + fugere to flee -- more at UP, FUGITIVE > > 1 : deception by artifice or stratagem in order to conceal, escape, > or evade > > 2 : a deceptive device or stratagem > > at http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary? book=Dictionary&va=subterfuge > > > UncoolRabbit, you're still evading the need to provide a genuine > response to a direct question to you: > > What cause justifies violating an innocent person's right to be free > from YOU initiating, or doing a credible threat to initiate, physical > force against their body and/or justly held possessions? > > Your expression of garbled logic below is not going to distract the > smart folk in this forum; how about an answer dude... > > > -Terry Liberty Parker > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Libertarian > > > > --- In [email protected], "uncoolrabbit" <uncoolrabbit@> > wrote: > > > > It's a rediculous statement, the problem is not getting me to admit > > that it is as much.
