People like Bloomy are always dangerous. Not in the traditional sense like, say, James “007” Bond, but more like dangerous to our freedoms and liberty. Not because he has an alternative way for us to protect ourselves, of course not, but because he has tunnel vision on how society, a world he left behind eons ago, should operate.
I might have given him a glance if he didn’t have armed guards around him all the time while telling everyone else they have no right to protect themselves using the same hardware that protects him on a daily basis.
Nope. The little man is nothing but a control freak who likes to espouse the worst kind of advice. Do as I say and not as I do. It really doesn’t get more disgusting or despicable than that my Freeper friends!!
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be "cured" against one's will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.
