I'm pretty saddened by the society that we live in and I think the founders of our country would be equally disheartened. We have became a society in which people have become all to complicit with government authority and that is pretty apparent in the molesto-scan TSA agents. We are a long way from Locke's natural right of revolution and the Jefferson's "it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it" days. It use to be that this was acceptable discourse in politics in that the people, when that government becomes to abusive, have the right to alter or ABOLISH that government and when I say abolish I mean A-B-O-L-I-S-H as in get-the-torches-and-prepare-to-write-a-new-constitution kind of abolish.
The TSA have gone to far and despite the fact children are being touched in a way that their parents told them was stranger-danger they parents accept it. They accept the dictates of the people in power as if they have no right to refuse those dictates. I'm not suggesting that people shoot the TSA but I am suggesting that we have a natural right to say "NO!" regardless of what the law says. This is because the authority of the universe is is God, man, then government. This means we have a right to resist the government since it is under our foot.
Restance isn't futile but a demand that God has placed on us. Any time we place any authority above our individual selves we are interfering with God's authority over us by placing something between us and him. This is not acceptable so we have no choice to resist any earthly authority simply because God is protective of his power over us. He does not share his authority with anyone and that includes the state.
ur a dumb asss
