Taking The Law Into Their Own Hands

I've always hated that phrase as it's usually applied. If the government really is "by the people, of the people, for the people" then taking the law into our own hands is part of our duty. If we're to leave...

The Security Of Denial; The "Empowerment" Of Ignorance
