We Must Prevent Anythingelsebuthims
The good news is that our government is not plotting to steal our freedom. The bad news is that the loss of our freedom is a fully automatic process. It runs on pure stupidity and there seems to be no shortage of fuel in sight. You can think of it as oaficial policy.
Enters the least of our species starting this natural process. He does something horrendous and then blames his behavior on ‘anything else but him’ in a desperate attempt to deflect consequences. The government, in a monumental act of stupidity, takes this idiot seriously and attempts to eliminate ˜anything else but him”. Some examples of ˜anything else but hims’ are drugs, pornography, gambling, TV, the Internet, nudity, art, mp3 headphones, rock and roll and other people to mention but a few.
Each of these ‘anything else but hims’ becomes stained by his cretinous behaviors through the esoteric logic of the drug warrior. The bottom line is that our personal liberties are being eliminated as though each of us will do something ‘horrendous’ compelled by ‘anything else but him’ if given the chance. In the thirties, murder was blamed on the rage murderers felt after smoking marijuana.
If we as Americans do not come to see our rights as more substantial than that which is being slung at them, freedom will dissolve like the will that created it. We must rail at any abridgement of rights without clear and compelling necessity. The justice system can no longer be allowed to express moral indignation with law. Representatives submitting legislation based on unsubstantiated causal relationships should not be allowed to finish their terms of office.
But most importantly, never vote for a prohibitionist. Only lemmings could understand this phenomenon. Why do we vote for someone who thinks its fine to arrest citizens who have neither endangered nor harmed anyone? Putting someone behind bars with no justification reveals a contempt for citizen’s rights that is itself contemptible.
