Better And Better

If you don't draw yours, I won't draw mine. A police officer, working in the small town that he lives in, focusing on family and shooting and coffee, and occasionally putting some people in jail.

To those of you have had just plain had it:

I've always said that I support your right to check out by yourself. That's fine. But please realize that, if you're planning to make an event with your final act, you might very well be sending support to the very cause that you're railing against.

Probably, Mr. Stack has made a fair run at casting every person who loudly rants against our federal tax system as a crazy person.

There are other ways to lodge your protests, people. If your plan involves causing an explosion that may kill someone you don't know, can't see, and never met, then you, sir, are the Bad Guy.

Like I always say: "Don't drag everyone else into your little drama. If you feel the need to start shooting at The Voices, please shoot at the one in your head first."

To be seized upon by the hopeless left and right, just like everything else. The interesting question is what is he? A criminal? If so then the guys who flew planes into the twin towers should also be criminals. A terrorist? Then shouldn't we view the movement he identified with the same way militant Islam is viewed? Being consistent means calling balls and strikes based on the action and not on who is holding the bat. I personally think hes a criminal. I don't think we should be viewing people who speak even passingly of the prospect of a civil war over our government as terrorists. But I respect the other viewpoint, provided its applied consistently. Its also not worthy of more than 5 minutes of fame, in my opinion. Why? Because I am neither far left nor far right.

If you are going to tilt at a windmill for real, do not trample the bystanders, arsehole.

The only truly effective action I have ever seen against the IRS was by the Scientology cult. They spent a large chunk of change performing a presidential candidate grade background check on the IRS investigators that were assigned to them.

After one meeting, the IRS suddenly decided that this was a legitimate church, and that there was nothing to see here, move along ...

This cat doesn't strike me as a real "movement" kind of guy.

Being a terrorist and being a criminal are not mutually exclusive, Anon. As a matter of fact, they tend to go hand in hand.

My first thought was asshole, but that characterization might come from getting to drive by and see the gaping wound in the building everyday.
