Society and government exists for the protection of the individual rights, not the individual for the society. That's been the biggest lie perpetuated by both the Dem's and Repub's for years, sadly people believe this. People are programed to "obey". I have absolutely no problem following laws that harm liberties through force or fraud. I can make a million rules, but that doesn't make them, moral, nor does it make them just. It's just damn silly to make the argument that because rules exist we have to follow them. What if the rules make no sesne. What if the rules don't apply to an action that iniates force. What makes these rules moral? What makes these rules just or right? Take some time and actually THINK about the rules. God gave you inalienable rights. He also gave you a brain - use it.

You could always move to a third world facist country where any immoral action is subject to stoning. :-)

... facist country ...

What dat?! A nation with a nose and eyebrows? I know Italy is kinda like a footist country in a way. Would Portugal qualify as a facist country?
