Given the turn towards hyper-partisan attitudes that this place has undergone over the last couple of years, I thought this might be some good information to share.

It's a plague. There really isn't much talk about government being the enemy anymore, just how it can protect us from 'them'.

One example, New Years Eve went by without a single mention of the insane police state security theater being conducted in various cities across the country to keep us "safe." In the past we've always had half dozen or more threads relating to that kind of thing. I guess the domestic police state is no longer a concern for the so-called "liberty movement"?

Ya, I don't know. I'm doing my best to hold off on the criticism hoping Trump follows through with turning down the volume on our interventionist foreign policy. I he does that one thing I'm willing to go after the rest later. I could be happy to see that happen for now, we aren't going to get miracles and it's a really good place to start.

There are only a handful of active members here on a regular basis. Cannot blame the few still here.
Antifederalist has been anti-cop since as long as I can remember. If he had an encounter with police I doubt he would push his liberty principles. He would minimize his exposure with the police because we all know interacting with cops does not end well. That doesn't mean he doesn't think the system is wrong. It only means that he does not want to lose his job, family, house, savings and everything else fighting a system totally rigged against him.
If I were to characterize the USA as a person I would say they are in their 90's suffering from delusions, Alzheimer's, psychotic, incontinent of both bowel and urine, unable to ambulate. They USA is like an old decrepit person that has lost all their faculties and can only keep repeating nonsensical words over and over again.
How many threads did you start this new years eve on those subjects? I didn't see you start any, I guess it is no longer a concern for you?
How much insane security theater did you experience this new years eve? I didn't experience any.
I drove to the next county and back New Years Eve on a highway and never saw a cop .
Do something Danke

Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

I saw the cops starting their stupid games on my way back from work at 6:30-7:00. Getting up on peoples ass, trying to get them to do something stupid so they could pull them over. I went home and stayed there.

Can't smoke in a Bar
Can't drink anywhere without threat of harassment
can't have sex without a lawyer
What's the point?

Bump for relevance to a current thread.
