Hard to disregard that man with the star on his shirt when he comes at last to your property to arrest you for not complying with the ones you didn't concider moral.

Discretion is the better part of valour.

There is a sub-set of lunatic loons who appear to wish the ... end of American society (( link )) --- as we (( once -- 1st )) know it. Like the Nazis and the communists in Weimar Germany, they have a great deal in common as potential destroyers of the social fabric.

I have engaged in several debates in the last few days, and I admire FreeRepublic as a forum for the free expression of ideas, but the overwhelming presence of this bunch of loons is very off-putting.

Lenin is supposed to have said that capitalists would sell him the rope by which they were to be hung. The “anarcho-loons” on this forum would not bother to sell the rope but provide it as a public service.

I agree, but then you are not living free. You are just pretending to be. I agree that it makes it easier to get by.

I understand your hope, but realistically, you aren't free in any sense of the word. I can list a thousand things you cannot do which are moral, and a thousand things you must do which are immoral.
