Most if not all activist liberals advocate anarchy through thier actions. For example when Onfrie and others openly admit that they smoke pot and take ILLEGAL drugs they are involving themselves in ANRCHY against the law. If they are not then please tell me what they are doing. Are they simply advocating thier liberalism?
A. Not all liberals are pot smokers.
B. Smoking marajuana is not illegal in all states i.e. medical use in California (whether or not you agree this is irrelevant)
C. There are many independent non-liberals i.e. liberatarians who advocate the legalization of marijuana.
D. I am sure there have been many conservative republicans who have smoked marijuana earlier in their youth.
I am not saying this makes it right to go against the law if your state makes it illegal. I am just making the point that being a liberal does not mean your an anarchist.
And no I have not nor will ever smoke marajuana just as I am not or will be a habitual tobacco smoker (though I have smoked an occasional cigar). That is my personal perogative. BTW, I am not a liberal, I am an independent and a populist.
Oh, only if this were practiced it would be a wonderful world. Freedom is not freedom to do anything you want but freedom with in the law. Equal rights are not the right to violate the law in practice or intention.
I agree unless the laws are unjust, such as the discremenatory laws of the pre-1960's in the US.
I certainly do not agree with such things as property tax or inheritence tax, but I am required to follow the law regardless of my personal convictions as to why I dont like it or think it is wrong.
No disagreement here.
I can say this to you because I am not a Squid or anchor clanker as yourself but was a member of a real service The Air Force, ha ha. But swabbies have thier functions as well I suppose, Ha ah again.
My Dad was AF for 21 years, so I have dual heritage. Good to here another military voice on this board despite our political differences.
I heard this one the other day, thought you would have a laugh:
An Air Force officer and a Navy officer go into a bathroom. They both urinate, and the Navy guy starts to walk out. The Air Force guy says, “You know, in the Air Force, they teach us to wash our hands after taking a piss.” The Navy guy says, “In the Navy, they teach us not to piss on our hands.”
A persons life is not decided in a single action or even several. The colonists were an anrchists. What they were for thier whole life as relates to God is a different story. Situation ethics is a myth and in violation to Gods will. If I lie aboout someone in a closet because someone will kill them if I tell, its still a lie. My favorite Old Testament character Abraham lied to Pharoah about his wife to protect her and keep her, but it was lie nonetheless. Except for insolated icesodents, he was overall faithful to God and called the Father of the faithful.
So the Germans and Dutch who hid their Jewish friends in their houses (i.e. Ann Franke, etc) and lied to the Nazi's about hiding Jews were wrong to do this?
You say YOUR war. Do you not agree that we should defend ourselves or others that need assistance from AGGRESSORS? Cavediver would be a prisoner now if it were not for my relatives taking a stance against the Nazis and he would not be able to bore me with his Vacuous speeches, ha ha.
Sorry that was a typo I meant to say "What about war in general?"
Of course I believe we have the inherent right of self defense and collective self defense of our allies or I would not be in the Navy. Of course I believe WWII was justifiable. However, every war is not.
