Defund The Police!
It just struck me like I was shot… like I was shot with a diamond… a diamond bullet right through my forehead.
Another epiphany.[This message has been edited by rinselberg (edited 04-14-2021).]

You're an errand boy, sent by grocery clerks to collect a bill.

Obviously, we don't have the same circumstances or situation.
Your definition here would be anarchy or possibly state terrorism. That is not the situation where I am and I've never experienced it.
I have to take your word on your situation.
I sincerely and absolutely support the Constitution of the US. I have signed on the dotted line and sworn and oath to the ideals within that document.
I can't speak to Canadian issues. It's your mess, I suggest you folks clean it up. We have our own challenges.

Are you laboring under the misconception that a country's constitution somehow isn't law?
You are laboring under the misconception that every country has a constitution that limits the power of their government.
Are you laboring under the misconception that Canada has a constitution that limits the power of your government in the same manner of the United States Constitution?
Are you laboring under the misconception that Canada's "Bill of Rights" says anything other than your "rights" were granted to you BY your government and the Queen of England?
("Therefore Her Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate and House of Commons of Canada, enacts as follows:")
Are you laboring under the misconception that The United States has a Bill of Rights that isn't 171 YEARS OLDER than Canada's "bill of rights" (1960)?
You are a subject of your government not a citizen.
Perhaps that is a source of your confusion and angst regarding laws and constitutions.[This message has been edited by randye (edited 04-15-2021).]

Personal responsibility is dead.
Now its how was I victimized so I don't have to be held accountable for my actions.
What happened to standards of society? That is what my Civics teacher said was so important.
That as a society we make laws to protect each other. Probably why they canceled his class.

That sure does appear to be the end goal.
It won't die in those who know it is true though.

The only way to be absolved of responsibility is to forfeit freedom. This is the same concept which prompts some to ask, "Why would a just, benevolent God allow human suffering?" Far too many Americans are complacent with the parent/child relationship they have with their keepers.
In the 1968 movie "Speedway', Elvis tried to remind us "He's your uncle, not your dad."
