Government at all levels continues to renege on its obligations under the social contract.
A hard rain’s gonna fall.
Welcome to mob rule and anarchy. Ain’t liberalism great. /sarc
“Government at all levels continues to renege on its obligations under the social contract.”
‘...alter or abolish it...’
Everyone please encourage all your friends and coworkers to carry a gun in these dangerous times.
Getting caught in the middle of that would be terrible.
Less so if you happen to be on the way home from the range with your favorite plinker and several hundred rounds loaded up in mags.
Attack my vehicle on the interstate ferals and see what happens.....
We have mob rule, anarchy, and an increasing number of domestic terrorist attacks. Who on earth would want four more years of this?
Nothing to worry about, unless you are caught driving while white....
They need the National Guard.
Are you kidding??
When I come home from the range I am bone dry.
Fortunately, my carry piece and spare magazine are untouched...
That’s funny that you mention the “social contract”. The African-Americans put the shackles on themselves and are just now realizing the “cost” of being the ward of the government.
Thomas Hobbes’ “Leviathan” addresses this very thing. It’s amazing how “old dead white guys” are still relevant. WE ALL are under the social contract and that’s why the “police state” is what we are allowing in the name of security.
HOBBES (b. 1588- d. 1679)
Imitation: Nature is the art of God. Man imitates this art.
1. Man is a complex machine created through nature by God.
Man creates an artificial man called, the Leviathan or Commonwealth (government). The Leviathan’s purpose is to protect and defend the collective group of human beings (the people’s safety). The Leviathan was created by a contract in which each individual agreed implicitly to give the power to protect his/her individual rights to the Leviathan. In turn the Leviathan agrees to protect the collective rights of these individuals.
2. Good, Evil, and Contemptible are determined solely by an individual’s emotions (desires, aversions, and contempt). Some of these are natural and some are based on experience (personal and observation).
3. In the state of nature, all people are equal in power. Thus, there is always hope that one can attain what one desires. Therefore, each individual is at risk of losing what he/she has if it is desired by another. Since, some desires are natural, this is bound to happen. In the search for security, each person endeavors to gain more power than those around him/her. Also, there are some who desire power itself. So, even those that are happy with only a few meager possessions are at risk. Thus, since there is a constant threat to individuals that they will lose what they need to survive, they have a right to defend themselves against such a threat.
Unfortunately, this leads to a war of all against all.
4. Furthermore, in the natural condition, people do not get along with each other. There are three major causes of fighting...
Competition: People see themselves as in competition with each other.
(invade for gain)
Diffidence: People lack self confidence and thus tend to overcompensate for it. (invade for safety)
Glory: People tend to desire glory. They expect others to value them as well as they value themselves. (invade for reputation)
THEREFORE... the only way that we can attain peace is if we can eliminate the hope that one can be successful in invading other’s property and the fear that others can be successful in invading our’s.
The means to achieve this is by creating a power that is much more powerful than anyone else.
5. Humans are not naturally social like the bees are.
-Continually in competition for honor and dignity
-The common good often differs from the individual (or private) good.
6. No moral judgement should be made of humans in the situation of a war of all against all. Morality, right and wrong, etc. do not exist in the natural condition. “Where there is no common Power, there is no Law: where no Law, no Injustice. Force and Fraud, are in war the two Cardinal Virtues. Justice, and Injustice are non of the Faculties neither of the Body, nor Mind.” (Leviathan, Part I, Chap. 13.) Moral judgements relate to humans in society, not in solitude. Therefore, there is no morality when there is no society.
7. Humans can escape their natural conditions, including the war of all against all, through the use of passions and reason. Fear of death, desire of such things as are necessary to commodious living, and hope that, with effort, one can obtain such things are the passions that incline men to peace. “And Reason suggesteth convenient Articles of Peace, upon which men may be drawn to agreement.” These Articles are Hobbes’ Laws of Nature.
8. According to Hobbes, a law of nature is a general rule, found out by reason, by which a person is forbidden to do that which is destructive of his life, or takes away the means of preserving his life, and required to do that which he believes best preserves his life.
The first and fundamental law of nature is, “That every man, ought to endeavor Peace, as farre as he has hope of obtaining it; and when he cannot obtain it, that he may seek, and use, all helps, and advantages of Warre.” This stresses the general rule, Seek Peace and Follow It. It also includes the natural right, to defend ourselves.
The second law of nature is, “That a man be willing, when others are so too, out of the desire for Peace and necessity for self-defense, to lay down the right to all things, and be content with so much liberty against other men, as he would allow other men against himself.” The right to liberty is not merely given up, but is transferred to the Leviathan.
9. The Leviathan is the person or assembly appointed by the people when they confer upon it the all their power and strength, and submit their wills and judgements to it to act on those things which concern the common peace and safety. The Leviathan is a “unity of all, in one and the same person, made by Covenant of every man with every man in such a manner, as if every man should say to every man, I Authorize and give up my Right of Governing my self, to this Man, or to this Assembly of men, on this condition, that thou give up thy Right to him, and Authorize all his Actions in like manner. This done, the multitude so united in one person, is called a COMMON-WEALTH,” ruled by the Leviathan.
The 19 Laws as noted by Thomas Hobbes
The first Law of nature is that every man ought to endeavour peace, as far as he has hope of obtaining it; and when he cannot obtain it, that he may seek and use all helps and advantages of war.
The second Law of nature is that a man be willing, when others are so too, as far forth, as for peace, and defence of himself he shall think it necessary, to lay down this right to all things; and be contented with so much liberty against other men, as he would allow other men against himself.
The third Law is that men perform their covenants made. In this law of nature consisteth the fountain and original of justice... when a covenant is made, then to break it is unjust and the definition of injustice is no other than the not performance of covenant. And whatsoever is not unjust is just.
The fourth Law is that a man which receiveth benefit from another of mere grace, endeavour that he which giveth it, have no reasonable cause to repent him of his good will. Breach of this law is called ingratitude.
The fifth Law is complaisance: that every man strive to accommodate himself to the rest. The observers of this law may be called sociable; the contrary, stubborn, insociable, forward, intractable.
The sixth Law is that upon caution of the future time, a man ought to pardon the offences past of them that repenting, desire it.
The seventh Law is that in revenges, men look not at the greatness of the evil past, but the greatness of the good to follow.
The eighth Law is that no man by deed, word, countenance, or gesture, declare hatred or contempt of another. The breach of which law is commonly called contumely.
The ninth Law is that every man acknowledge another for his equal by nature. The breach of this precept is pride.
The tenth law is that at the entrance into the conditions of peace, no man require to reserve to himself any right, which he is not content should be reserved to every one of the rest. The breach of this precept is arrogance, and observers of the precept are called modest.
The eleventh law is that if a man be trusted to judge between man and man, that he deal equally between them.
The twelfth law is that such things as cannot be divided, be enjoyed in common, if it can be; and if the quantity of the thing permit, without stint; otherwise proportionably to the number of them that have right.
The thirteenth law is the entire right, or else...the first possession (in the case of alternating use), of a thing that can neither be divided nor enjoyed in common should be determined by lottery.
The fourteenth law is that those things which cannot be enjoyed in common, nor divided, ought to be adjudged to the first possessor; and in some cases to the first born, as acquired by lot.
The fifteenth law is that all men that mediate peace be allowed safe conduct.
The sixteenth law is that they that are at controversie, submit their Right to the judgement of an Arbitrator.
The seventeenth law is that no man is a fit Arbitrator in his own cause.
The eighteenth law is that no man should serve as a judge in a case if greater profit, or honour, or pleasure apparently ariseth [for him] out of the victory of one party, than of the other.
The nineteenth law is that in a disagreement of fact, the judge should not give more weight to the testimony of one party than another, and absent other evidence, should give credit to the testimony of other witnesses.
The cops were under orders to allow the street savages to attack innocent White individuals. This is because the politicians have decided to abandon Whites in favor of street savages.
I’d be deathly afraid.
And in 1st gear, pedal down.
Too bad we have female, mex, muzzie and old man truckers now.
In 1960 that freeway would fer sure not have shut down for those punks.
Time to car carry everywhere.
Anyone who doesn’t carry or have access to a firearm in this rapidly disintegrating country is a damn fool.
What a post - thx DV and FR U!

It just helps get Trump elected. The more riots the higher his polls will go.
Add NC to his list of states.
The idiot “media” continues to call these riots and the feral criminals doing them “demonstrations” and “mostly peaceful demonstrations”. Did I say “idiot media”?
