Do you think ALL government is evil?

No, of course not. A government that is within the bounds of legitimacy is not evil.

Around the time of the New Deal, our government broke down the last limits. Most of what has been added since is illegitimate and EVIL.

There are depths of evil to which we have not yet sunk.

Yes, much evil is present.

You might want to take note of the fact that we remain the most free and just nation in the world in spite of the evil.

There may come a day when we need to take up arms to replace our government. But this is such a drastic measure, reform is much more desirable if there is any way possible. Just look at the carnage and devastation of our civil war.

And surely you would not advocate using terrorism as a means of reforming or replacing our government?

Quite honestly I wonder if there are enough civilized people who are willing to risk everything and fight if it does come down to that.
