Maybe if there were few people on this planet. But let's just take the US. With 330 million people there would be massive death and destruction, the likes humans have never seen. To beleive otherwise is foolish. Guess what I am saying is, that as much as I would enjoy anarchy the realist comes out in me and tempers my thoughts.Originally Posted by phill4paul

Bull$#@!. The state is, always has been, and always will be (so long as it continues to exist), the single greatest source of "massive death and destruction the likes of which humans have ever seen" - by many, many orders of magnitude ...
"The debate between statists and anti-statists is in my judgement not evenly matched. Defending the continued existence of the state, despite having absolute certainty of a corresponding continuation of its intrinsic engagement in extortion, robbery, willful destruction of wealth, assault, kidnapping, murder, and countless other crimes, requires that one imagine non-state chaos, disorder, and death on a scale that non-state actors seem completely incapable of causing." -- Robert Higgs, The State Is Too Dangerous to Tolerate (emphasis added)

Like I said previously, I'd rather live in the Jim Crow South with my parcel of land, livestock and fresh air as opposed to ducking bullets and syringes in the boxlike urban ghettos. I'll take my chances with a few racists as opposed to the 24/7 encompassing culture of death.
Secondly, many people are naive to the fact that there are significant portions of the Northeast that are far more discriminatory than the South.

Sure you'd like to live there. I don't fathom the racists narrative would weigh on you at all. I've done my time. If you ain't from around there, they don't want you and they will make damn sure you know it. In the south you ain't leaving behind the needles, they do that there, too. Nor will you stop dodging bullets. My next door neighbors in Alabama thought it great sport to shoot at their neighbors in an attempt to drive them off of their land. Bonus prize is the treatment by law enforcement and anyone else who isn't a transplant just because you aren't a local no matter how long you've lived on your cozy parcel (which is just about impossible to find without some bucktoothed yahoo harassing you with the zoning laws 'cause again you ain't from around there)
I've also done my time up in the North and yep, they are blatantly racist here as well, in pockets. They don't worry about keepin' up airs like they do down south. None of that hey sugar, let me fix you some sweet tea while I stab you in the back crap that is a dime a dozen down south. Blatant morons are much easier to avoid than back stabbing manipulators.

Baton Rouge Shooter Video '3 principles for my people'
What more can be said then it is sad all around? It seems like the shooter had had enough. And who the hell am I to say 'just suffer a little more oppression, things will be better soon'? And that is not just in reference to black individuals but any individuals. The state is oppressive from its taxes and regulations to victimless-crime laws and militarized police these all have an effect of bringing a person down. And there is no bright horizon on the future that can be pointed to at this time. And on the other side you have three individuals whose children will never get to see them again. I sure as hell can't say these individuals deserved to die. As has already been stated this is a mess that the state and politicians have gotten us into. The only path I see forward is just to keep on keeping on spreading love and the truth and pray that our work will minimize bloodshed and bring about change.

Sure the state is no saint but remember the state is the people. Human nature ain't so nice. Doesn't matter who gives the orders.

I often wonder the same in regards to war. I obviously can't speak for this guy. Maybe it is viewed as the current weak point? There are plenty of politicians to fall in line and keep the same $#@! going. Politicians are afforded greater security than police officers. If they hollow the ranks of police will people go to fill their shoes? I dunno man. Maybe they are just looking to spark a discussion?
Because GROUPS don't kill anyone; individuals do. Race is not responsible.

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.

The state is not the people. The state is some of the people (and a relative few at that).
If that is the case, then it's just one more reason why a monopoly on force (i.e. the state) should never be given over to the hands of a relative few. Doing so is what makes possible the "massive death and destruction the likes of which humans have ever seen" that you mentioned - and it does so on a scale which, as Higgs noted, non-state actors simply cannot hope to match (even if they wanted to).
Ok. Black individuals murder other black individuals at an alarming rate.
Better?

Almost everyone of these shooters of cops are worthless to society in terms of what they did in their life until age 30 or 35. That's a huge PR problem for the anti-cop.
It's not like one of them was the best welder on the shop floor and they were driving home from work and their relative murdered by cops.
Young black men kill themselves as much as young white men.
This is the lack of logic in Black Lives Matter. The KKK can't go into a mostly black county, abduct a black person without a noise or scratches on the body and hang them in a tree.
There was only 2000 blacks lynched.

CALLER: Here we go. What do you want to start with? Let's start with the (unintelligible) Black Lives Matter. I don't know how you guys can think that's a hate group. That's not a hate group. And the reason why so many people support that is because the Klan is still running around. Nobody gets to talk about that. That's what's got everybody pissed off.
Everybody scared about this ISIS, ISIS that. But the Klan's been here for how many years, and it's still running around doing what they want to do, and nobody cares about it? There's been 90 people lynched since 2013. Ninety. And there was one last week that they found in the park, they're trying to say he did it to himself. That's how people don't be caring about a lot of stuff that be going on, man, 'cause they're pissed off, and you guys go out of town or go out of the country to go get ISIS --

So, are you saying that you don't agree with private property rights, Cajun?

This is probably the most inappropriate tangent ever, but at least their signs are spelled correctly (and no, that's definitely not a racist dig; look at any protest or gathering...).
Genuine, willful, aggressive ignorance is the one sure way to tick me off. I wish I could say you were trolling. I know better, and it's just sad.
Particularly in several large cities.
and Much of that related to the War on Drugs.

White privilege? Really? You mean private property rights? It's late and I am not interested in spending the time to look up the numbers from way back then, but here are some more current numbers. Perhaps this had something to do with it. Don't know. Do you?
Looks like a lot of white privilege going on in these pictures. Not that anyone alive today is responsible for what's going on here, but if you can't at least acknowledge that it once existed....maybe some are too blind to see.
From the CDC...
http://www.cdc.gov/nchhstp/healthdis...americans.htmlSexually Transmitted Diseases (STD)
Gonorrhea
In 2010, 69% of all reported cases of gonorrhea occurred among blacks. The rate of gonorrhea among blacks in 2010 was 432.5 cases per 100,000 population, which was 18.7 times the rate among whites (23.1). This disparity has changed little in recent years. This disparity was larger for black men (22.2 times) than for black women (16.2 times).
Chlamydia
In 2010, the overall rate among blacks in the United States was 1,167.5 cases per 100,000, a 4.0% increase from the 2009 rate of 1,122.2 cases per 100,000. The rate of chlamydia among black women was over seven times the rate among white women (1,536.5 and 205.1 per 100,000 women, respectively). The chlamydia rate among black men was almost 11 times the rate among white men (761.8 and 69.9 cases per 100,000 men, respectively).

You are the one talking about Jim Crow; not me. What I am focusing on is one of the pictures you chose to post and your apparent distress over private property rights. I find it curious; especially by someone who calls themselves "libertarian".
