I will never and have never voted for a law and order candidate. If I ever hear of a candidate that supports law and disorder, he has my vote. Why? Because people are not orderly, obeying the law and observing the courtesies and considerations due others should be enough. If people are orderly, they are being forced. In other words they are being punished for followinig their own lights. Note, I did say we each owe the other courtesy and consideration of their rights. Law can be useful as a deterrent for the violation of such. But law that enforces order is itself a violation those tenets of a free people almost always.

I like to pose this question on occassion. Can you name one thing you can do that is not governed, regulated, taxed or prohibited by the state unless you break the law? Anything at all? So far, no one has come up with anything that a restriction of free will over it can’t be found. Overt acts only, not thinking about it.

Shit, sometimes I depress myself.
