: : Don: Note that socialist recommend that we ALL be treated like children and criminals. Denying law abiding adults the right to keep and bear arms is a violation of the 2nd Amendment, by the way. I suggest we keep violent criminals in prison so we can avoid the problems of having to identify them.

: We keep everyone in a prison anyway; freedom of motion, freedom of speech, freedom of expression are all currently dependent on what your capital value is to the world; if you aren't born one of the lucky few, you're as good as dead.

Don: Born lucky? Do you think JFK jr was born lucky or unlucky?

: If you're prepared to ignore this; to continue in the system as it currently is, you can be guaranteed a quiet, moderately luxurious life in which you may have a couple of kids, rounded off by a quiet death and funeral (unless the system crashes, that is).

Don: And you can engage in a surprising amount of freedom of motion, freedom of speech, freedom of expression . . .

: If you persist in being difficult and asking difficult questions about fairness and justice, you will be hunted down and destroyed, as Judy Bari nearly was, or as Fernando Periera was.

Don: You think these people asked difficult questions about the "system"?

: Conform or die; that is your choice. As such, mere iron bars are merely the crudest form of prison. Your sole reason for existence in their eyes is to fuel the global market.

Don: THEY? THEY! Who is THEY?
