It's called the Whiskey Rebellion and was probably this country's first example of how you should never question the power of the state, especially when it comes to taxes. Just ask Wesley Snipes.

I should've said just ask Wesley "I'm never leaving Africa again in my entire life" Snipes.

"probably this country's first example of how you should never question the power of the state, especially when it comes to taxes."

It was an example of how laws passed by the country's duly elected representatives should be obeyed, even if some people have objections based upon "high minded" (ahem) principles.

Our society has decided -- repeatedly so -- that it does not want to support drug addicts and the several generations of their progeny.

You lovers of liberty (funded by George Soros) want to take away our society's basic right to decide such things.

Who are the tyrants? Who is the Taliban?
