There are only two things that are sure in this world. Death and Taxes. Conservatives are not for, everybody not paying taxes, they are for everyone paying a Fair share. And that those collecting them and spending Our money would do so responsibly. Only a fool would even imagine that you could have anything close to a modern society without ever paying taxes.
You most surely CAN have a modern society without one nickel in taxes. It is modern GOVERNMENT that is the hog for my wallet and I am sick to death of it AND its cheerleaders, people who want government's thievish hands in everyone's wallet. WRONG. But I give you credit for a good try, no matter how silly your response was.
BTW, seeing that you are a retired Marine you wouldn't happen to be receiving a pension check from those "thieving gubmint types", would you?

If it's the pic I'm thinking of, the bomb didn't go off as intended, but the pic was of the sapper holding the remains of the phone after they had set it off themselves.
Did it really "frost" you that Al Capone was convicted of tax evasion instead of murder, extortion or other more traditional charges? Or, is your outrage limited to those who are suspicious of teenage boys, 3,000 miles from home, without any visible means of financial support, who bought 1,000 cell phones only to immediately disassemble them and remove the batteries?
