I still disagree in that I think VT wouldn't have happened under PJ. The 'experts' who have analyzed and published 'accepted' theories on both VT and other sociopaths, haven't given any credence to what the feeling of social slavery might do to people who feel it more keenly. I believe that...

The key here could be that he had a "law" forbidding to blame or place the wrong of his action onto. God said 'you must not eat the apple', so Adam's mind could rationalize it like this. 'My eating the apple is only hurting the entity of God's law'. Had God phrased it differently, 'eating...

But there is a point in discussing what we can theorize about it, and that theoretical thinking and talk could lead to an inspiration on how it could be proven. However, there is a historical model to examine for a possible example. Did problems related to the consumption of alcohol increase...

This *lightbulb* is what I've been fishing for and now we can have the conversation I've been hoping for. C) Adam ate the apple because it was forbidden fruit, but Eve ate the Apple in spite of it being forbidden fruit (or vice-versa because I'm not making a sexist comment). If C) is correct...

What is wrong with Utopian thinking? I optimistically believe that one day Capitalism will fail as communism did and that democracy will rise in it's place. A point will come when people stand up and say "this is SO stupid!" I'm also certain that law will collapse as well, to be replaced by a...

What keeps them from it now? Poilice take bribes and lawyers drag their feet in cases to inflate their billing. There is NO oversight for either the police or the justice department (except 'internal affairs' which means the same as 'white-washing'). I believe in the goodness of people. If...

"Not from the perspective that I see it." You interpreted this differently than I meant it. I wasn't insulting your knowledge of the law but rather commenting on how you looked at Law from the favorable angle, while my perspective is negative to it. I don't like the word 'court', which...

[Shameless Plug] :eek: I just recieved this email. This is why I write. Hi Russell I picked up your book in a second hand bookshop in Delhi. It kept me enthralled during the wait for the late plane ex-Delhi, during the 10 hour connection wait in Kuala Lumpur and finally the flight on...

I've been doing that to show what isn't right in the system now. I'll try to refrain from that. Not from the perspective that I see it. I'll try again. Free justice presumes that people have the intrinsic right to do whatever they choose--it does not break natural law. Obviously though...

Which came first--thge chicken or the egg? You want me to lay out how my proposed system would work and you hope to find the root concept in that. I want you to see the basic concepts before I can work up the natural changes that stem from the true base. I don't know where the middle ground...

What is the difference from today where the police and the court makes the threat decisions? Law functions by telling people what they can or cannot do - equates to slavery. Protective justice functions by telling people what it wants to protect them from. It's simply moving the societal...

Did you grasp the eggshell concept? Do you understand the real difference between Law and protective justice? If you have, then show me that you have and I'll answer the questions. If not, then I'm wasting my time because I'm building on a footing that you can't see.

British common law grew from cases involving real people in real situations. They are not just a set of rules as passed by (corrupt) governments. Imagine if the 'criminal' code was developed in the same way: it would have a chance of actually working right.

The nuts and bolts of how the system would work flow from the root change and I think if you 'grokked' (Robert Heinlien-Stranger in a Strange Land) that, then you could answer these questions for yourself. The root concept ISN"T just a wording change. Imagine yourself standing inside a...

I called it an entity to make you see it as one--but it's imaginary. A bogey-man entity in a closet is only fearsome to a child when they believe that it is real. When the lights come on, it vanishes and so does the law when you look at it. I don't acknowledge the law because it really...

In Canada, Karla Holmolka was given a shorter set term in a deal for testimony against her husband, Paul Bernardo. At the end of the time, she was released. She is a now a ticking time-bomb in society who will very likely kill again. 'Law' can't put her (or her husband) away forever but...

From my point of view, it gets very frustrating when people refuse to understand or acknowledge the root concept. When I've then try to expand on the (misunderstood) footing, you've thrown up this 'it's just a name change' comment that puts me back behind square zero again. Part one - The...

The death penalty is only justifiable in a 'punishment', not as a 'rehabilitation'. You beak-off about underdtanding my arguments well enough to reject them utterly--but most of your statements simply prove that you've entirely missed the salient points.

Hello, didn't Gitmo happen under your system of law? So how is this statement a valid condenmation of mine?

I have figured it out--it's F**ked and you're just too chicken to try.
