Well, if you live in 'Kalifornia' as you say, then you are free to sit in your own private home and watch all the cartoons you want to while rolling all the joints you want to, too, and no one will ever arrest you for it. Now, if you still insist on assuming the mantle of criminal-victim, then we can go further and inquire whether you also pine for the freedom to jaywalk with impunity, or drive on a public road without a license or insurance.

I think jaywalking, especially on busy roads, is not safe for those walking the street nor those who are driving, although if I run across a street without cars nor traffic, I would find it extremely silly to be issue a citation, considering I did nothing to harm anyone else.

I also have no problem with having to have insurance for a vehicle. It "insures" the fact that if I damage your property, I will pay for it.

These rules make sense. However, if I'm minding my own business, I don't see the morality in making me a criminal when I have done nothing to you or yours.

Am I really that out of line here?
