“Arbitrary rules are meant to be broken.”

Just because you disagree with it doesnt make it arbitrary.

If the rule weren’t arbitrary, there would be an obvious benefit to it.

There is none, but undesirable regimentation.

If you wish to be controlled, that is your perogative, but stay away from the rights of the rest of us.

“Just because you disagree with it doesn’t make it arbitrary.”

There’s an awful lot of ‘arbitrary’ going on in this country anymore. People have to make their stands where they can.

Mine is at Best Buy or Fry’s. When I make a purchase then the ownership of the items I buy transfer to me at the point of purchase. That’s the law.

Thus when I go to leave those stores I refuse to submit to a search of my bags. I’ll ask the person at the door if they have any reason to think that I was shoplifting and when they say ‘no’ I tell them to have a nice day and I walk out.

Their rule is arbitrary and I refuse to submit to it. Of course, they’re welcome to ban me from their store. So far they’ve never mentioned the idea. When or if they do I won’t be back.
