I must have missed the sarcasm tag.
Because there wasn’t one.
Here’s a quote worth remembering while the boot of the oppressor grows heavier:
“He who will not rule himself will be ruled by another.”
It is those who will not rule themselves that get my ire up, because I suffer under the oppressive restrictions they bring down on us all.
Like a teacher who says, “Nobody gets to go to recess until the entire class is quiet and finishes their work,”... or like a judge who says, “One more outburst like that and I’ll clear this entire courtroom,”... well, you get the point.
When a community polices itself instead of adopting that corrupt “live and let live” libertarian hogwash, government restraint is unnecessary. Such were the earlier days of America, and worthy of the term “self-government”.
