    Was that you that just bought one?

    A little, but only as set in fictional character's discussions. Then why did you ask another question?

    Better a tinfoil hat than a head so padded (on the inside) with poitically approved insulation, that no innovative ideas are able to filter in.

    Law is currently wrong and not working the way we want it to BECAUSE the theory enabling it is INCORRECT. The way to stop wrongdoing isn't by saying it is against some proclaimation and punishing for it. That is an outgrowth of the fuedal system with the land as lord in place of a landlord--it...

    Can't we compare apples to apples? How does the current law effectively thwart these either? Yes, some wrongdoing is always going to be done, but why shouldn't we do the VERY best that our brains can do. I see the reverse as being true. The rule-of-law is a fuedal concept. The Magna Charta...

    The snap answer is to say that none of these are really done now: people ARE being murdered, raped and robbed from. You only PRESUME that the rule-of-law is protecting--but it isn't. The theory is that people fearing the reprisals will, refrain from the crime. That's not working overly well...

    Firstly, take the 'punishment' from the equation. The goal isn't to punish, but rather to 'prevent' a reoccurrence, 'rehabilitate' if possible, or in the very best case, to 'protect' both the victim AND the victimizer from harms that would happen to BOTH should the wrongful event take place...

    Oddly enough he (or she) is only a 'criminal' because of the law. 'Rape' and 'stealing' are definitions of actions that are prohibited. If those laws didn't exist to be broken, the terms couldn't be applied. This is NOT just somantic! In many cases, a person will commit a proscribed action...

    Bad guys? The law created those 'bad guys' with your tax dollars and you have to double spend when you must pay again to have them rounded up as well. "Without laws, there could be no criminals." That quote may sound like a trick connundrum, but it does make logical sense. A law...

    I don't think there is a conspiracy to oppress us. It's simply that I think there is a better way. At one time, people believed that the world was flat. There wasn't a secret society to inspire the incorrect assumption, people just thought that, based on limited knowledge. Eventually, a...

    A beach chair and an umbrella. My book is fiction only.

    It would work just fine and naturally. Your sarcastic quip without any pre-thought towards broadening your mind isn't encouraging though. Have you bought that solidly into the 'inevitable as death and taxes' propoganda? Forget for a second whether a government could function effectively...

    Nevermind, the general issue of income taxation is only one of my highly contentious opinions. People should NOT be taxed at all. Income tax is not necessary: it is only in force to allow a government to keep the serfs (supposedly citizens) under an oppressing thumb. However, this is hardly a...

    I see that you're a senior moderator, so I imagine you've actually read the rules. I only ever just tick off the box claiming that I read them. Actually, I believe that perusing terms and conditions would be about as thrilling as studying the small print on a deoderant can whilst seated on the...

    Hi all. I've always been an avid reader of many genres. Then about two years ago I wrote my first novel - Shiva's Messenger. My second - Loki's Trojan, should be ready for publishing soon. I've joined this forum to self-promote, but it fits too because I care far more about what readers...
