There is nothing that can be solved by passing a new "law". Of course, this is something I have believed for a very long time, but it seems more evident every day. Every act of aggression or theft is already illegal. New "laws" only give the state more power or (false) authority to harm people who are not harming anyone else.
I won't obey any new "laws". I refuse to obey a lot of the existing ones already. If it is convenient to obey, and it doesn't interfere with my life in ways I am not willing to live with, I might obey. But don't count on it. I have had enough. Also, don't count on me allowing you to violate my rights. I might let you get away with it if you have me at a disadvantage.
I am determined to be left alone by the state or any other bad guys out there. Just as many others are.

ReplyDeleteI comply with some rules, improperly called "laws". For example, I'll comply with most of the traffic rules because I'd rather not interact with the cops. I have standards, ya know.
Other than that, the laws I follow are "don't piss anyone off, unnecessarily" and "don't make a damn fool of yourself".
Those two laws seem to work for me, everything else, I consider to be a suggestion.
Those are pretty good rules. "Don't interact with cops" is another good rule.
ReplyDeleteI follow a lot of the traffic "laws" in order to avoid initiating force, by way of an accident. I don't do it because some bureaucrat wrote it in a book and gleefully decided how much money to extort from "violators".
