Straight from the mouth of the de rigueur liberal counter-protester.
His take: Those of you who want smaller government should move to Somalia, where they have no government.

Pirates plunder wealth they didn’t earn. Seems like Somalia might be a better place for liberals.
I was kinda hoping Al Sharpton would move there and join the “coast guard”.
They don’t have Americans there either — which is the real root of their problems.
A very excellent explanation, worth gold.
Liberals have finally found a religion they want to see breach the wall of separation between Church and State.
They love them Muslim counties.
If we all moved to Somalia the place would become the shining jewel of Africa inside of 5 years. Then we would start infecting Africa with success.
People who want the gov’t to take care of them and love socialism should move to North Korea, Cuba! And stay there.
“Those of you who want smaller government should move to Somalia, where they have no government.”
First of all, unlimited government vs. anarchy is a false dichotomy. Secondly, theoretically defenders of anarchy don’t imagine it being a state of everyone at war with everyone else. Whenever someone usues violence to extract what he wants from others, he is taking on himself the authority of government, which automatically means he no longer lives in a state of anarchy. For government is nothing more than organized violence, as we all know. I’d say Somalia has far too much government, if anything.
The trick is to make it so that no one can use violence, or the threat of violence, to upset things too far. Conservative Americans seek to do so by having a central government, granting it a legal monopoly on most forms of violence (keeping for ourselves the right to defend ourselves and our property with violence if need be), and limiting it to a written constitution.
The problem is, the bigger the government grows, the more likely it is to disrupt things, just like when there is no central government to crush all the little purveyors of violence (i.e. what people usually call “anarchy”). it’s called the problem of liberty. Look it up.
I was thinking the same...
Homeboy got lost on his way to a gay rights rally.
Every Liberal argument is based on a twisted emotional response, not logic and common sense.
I would end all public employee pensions and deport 110% of all illegals, including anchor babies.
F Libs.
I believe this is what is known in logic as a "false dichotomy."
It is Funny that he should mention Somalia
Obozo's garb in this picture is that of a Samali Elder
My what wonderful things come out of Africa!(/sarcasm)
But, but...Tea parties are the highest form of patriotism!

We had one libtard counter-demonstrator. I loudly told him “There are plenty of communist countries in the world. You’re free to move to one.”
