>>Attempting to hold onto the "intellectual property" (cough) and then profit from carefully licensing it out to others is usually a lose. <<

This also applies to land that is not being used and is needed by the Randite masses.You can keep your smelly house Mong but all the fences have to come down before we take them down.
Attempting to hold on to yr SUV is also a 'lose' you loser.


"The modern conservative is engaged in one of man’s oldest exercises in moral philosophy: that is the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness."

Galbraith

Morons, mental defectives, epileptics, illiterates, paupers, unemployables, criminals, prostitutes and dope fiends of the world unite.

"Who wants to join the LAST revolution? The one to take down ALL the governments!"

James Dalton Bell.

"I was walking along the road with two friends.
The sun was setting.
I felt a breath of melancholy -
Suddenly the sky turned blood-red as the atmosphere tipped over into runaway greenhouse,
I stopped, and leaned against the railing, deathly tired -
looking out across the flaming clouds that hung like blood and a sword
over the blue-black fjord and town.
My friends walked on - I stood there, trembling with fear.
And I sensed a great, infinite scream pass through nature."

Conservatives are not necessarily stupid, but most stupid people are conservative. John Stuart Mill
1806-1873
British philosopher


     "Free thought, necessarily involving freedom
     of speech & press, I may tersely define thus:
     no opinion a law --  no opinion a crime."

Alexander Berkman.

1915 -- Australia: Sterling work from the syndicalist Industrial
Workers of the World Wobbly Tom Barker is arrested for
his anti-war poster,

"Workers, follow your masters: stay at home".

Anti-recruiting efforts finally get him 12 months
hard labour. He is released after only 3 months,
following a series of fires in stores & factories.
Is there a connection?

           "For every day Barker is in jail,
           it will cost the capitalists £10,000".

2001 --  Australia: Government says it used the bones of 21,830
dead Australians in a nuclear radiation study without the consent
of relatives, 1957-78.

"Wherever they burn books they will also, in the end, burn human beings."
---Heinrich Heine


Allow me to quote a Chinese proverb which goes, 'If you are out to condemn someone, you can always trump up a charge.' Jiang Zemin


The NY Court of Appeals ruled that it is not possible to "disturb the peace of a police officer". The incident was in fact someone calling a cop a "pig", and their subsequent arrest for "disturbing the peace". Any cop who reacts to being called "useless pig" is, in fact, one,and should be removed from positions of authority.

I'm not a believer in Anarchy because I believe that people will behave better without government than with, I'm a believer in Anarchy because then they can't hide behind lawyers and badges when they fuck someone. They can still hide behind guns, but that just makes their actions more honest. I don't believe in anarchy because I trust people. I believe in anarchy because I don't trust them. -- You don't expect governments to obey the law because of some higher moral development. You expect them to obey the law because they know that if they don't, those who aren't shot will be hanged." - -Michael Shirley

The issue is not that "allowing" it is good, but that "banning" it would require drastic and draconian enforcement measures.)
The problem with government is not that it is a conspiracy, it is an interlocking series of bureaucracies which all seek to avoid responsibility. I think that this Government is a threat to mankind. You can't protect freedom and liberties behind stock piles of chemical and biological weapons and nuclear weapons.


I am more afraid of an army of a hundred sheep led by a lion than an army of a hundred lions led by a sheep"- Charles Maurice de Talleyrand

Legal principles of ultra vires and due process. That restricts how communities can police members. Decisions can't be made on a whim. They can't be out of proportion.

The power of Accurate Observation is often dubbed Cynicism by those who lack it* GBShaw

It is a maxim among these lawyers, that whatever hath been done before, may legally be done again: and therefore they take special care to record all the decisions formerly made against common justice and the general reason of mankind."

Only those beneath me can envy or hate me. I have never been envied nor
hated; I am above no one. Only those above me can praise or belittle me. I have never been praised nor belittled; I am below no one. - Kahlil Gibran

"Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly while bad people will find a way around the laws."
Ollie North agrees with you sprinkles,"The truth is useless. You can't eat it., You can't deposit it in the bank. You can't pay your bills with the truth. It is only the lie which pays cash money."

"The great are great only because we are on our knees. Let us rise!"


"As I see things, I am not a robber. In creating man, Nature gave him the right to live & man has the duty to exercise that right in full. So if society fails to provide him with the wherewithal to survive, the human being is entitled to seize what he needs from wherever there is plenty."
---Marius Jacob

make to achieve law & order."

Ultimately, the only defense against evil and corruption is capacity for self defense and instilling fear of inevitable concrete personal reprisal within those who would impose corruption and evil. When law enforcement, when the legal system, when the politicians, or anybody else lose that fear, the people lose everything including their rights and freedomand eventually their lives.
There develops a criminal oligarchy that infiltrates and then perverts the institutions of law and government to solidify and enforce its corruption while superficially keeping the system in its original form.
We are finding that out. The only existent remedy or prevention is fear. What you have is only that which remains after what you let the criminals and the misguided get away with. The line must be drawn and the reaction to transgression hard.
"To be stupid, selfish, & have good health are three requirements for happiness, though if stupidity is lacking, all is lost."
Neoliberalism, the doctrine that makes it possible for stupidity and cynicism to govern in diverse parts of the earth, does not allow participation other than to hold on by disappearing. Die as a social group, as a culture, and above all as a resistance. Then you can be part of modernity.

Trigger-happy police are like salty crackers. They aren't simply made, they're manufactured and wrapped.
When have the many little Eichmanns who are preparing the Brave New World ever been called to account? Where is any elementary personal responsibility when the planners of our daily and global death march act with complete impunity?


"It's no good taking action after the crime," Mr. Mahathir said. "We have to act in anticipation, and not in the usual manner, because having to find proof of a crime which has not yet been committed is difficult."

At the best of times, I'm impressed by young Australians. At the worst of times, which this is shaping up to be, I'm struck even more by their odd reserves of character.
