31. Well, shit, why not? We have what's now become a grand tradition of flouting laws.

Settled laws. Look how the Civil Rights Act is being defied, ignored, and whittled away. Look how Roe v Wade now looks like an old coat that generations of moths got to.

It's just this idiotic and utterly childish mood toward which our country seems to have devolved - NOBODY tells ME what to do!!!! We see it in the gun nuts who insist that they have a right to parade their damn massacre machines in your face at the local fast-food joint. We see it in the so-called "sovereign citizen" crap. "Nobody tells you what to do?" Then what you want is NOT a democracy, and certainly not the United States of America. What you want is TOTAL ANARCHY!!!
