To: verga; wintertime

Where did wintertime mention “bullets”? I remember her referring to a gun. And that is a point made by many conservatives.

For example, you pay your taxes under force at the point of a gun, too. Years ago, I read a book that pointed out government always uses force in the form of a gun. The book said, If you don’t believe me, consider this: Try refusing to pay your taxes. Eventually, your property may be taken away. If you refuse to leave, armed police will be sent to your home to arrest you.

Parents (in many states, though not all) must send their children to school under the threat of force. If they refuse to comply, the police are sent to their home. I think that’s what wintertime is saying. The police don’t have to brandish the weapon directly at the parents and kids, but the threat of force is present.
