The Game, As It Is Really Played


Two examples of American thugocracy:

TL in Exile: Was It Something I Said (Wrote)?

John Lott: My Scary Encounter With Chicago's Mayor Richard Daley - h/t to Improved Clinch

Reality today is that the elected and appointed public servants at all levels of government see and conduct themselves as untouchable rulers, not servants.

And that inversion of roles is accepted by all but an easily-exterminated, trifling few Americans.

Putting it bluntly -- if you consent, it ain't rape.

And Denninger explains the consequences of that consent.

Had enough yet?

Really?

    I read the article by John Lott last week, but TL's is new. Thanks.

    It sounds like the corrupt thugocracy Ferfal describes as life in Argentina. And it's sounding more like that every day.

    There are 3 kinds of dogs in this world.

    The first kind rolls over and wets himself when kicked.
    The second kind growls and walks away when kicked.
    The third kind turns around and bites your leg when kicked.

    We need more of the third kind in America today.

    Obviously, Lott should have gone public immediately, as did TL.

    Mr. Lott's story is just one of many reasons that Chicago pigs need to rot where they belong. The stench is overwhelming. Damn them to hell for so dishonoring their oath of office!

    When the ice of illusion thaws, the season of anger will follow.

    I DO NOT CONCENT. And if that is what we have to look forward to (harasment on all corners)then the gloves WILL COME OFF.

    "Reality today is that the elected and appointed public servants at all levels of government see and conduct themselves as untouchable rulers, not servants."

    I couldn't agree with you more. My personal experiences with local and county governments clearly supports your above statement.

    My local freshman congressman, Mike Kelly-R, 3d Dist, PA, signed a pledge he would not support renewal of the Patriot Act. He signed this during his campaign for Congress. What did he do the other day ? He voted to extend the unconstitutional Patriot Act until the end of 2011 !

    Liars all.

    Anyone feel insulted by this article, or am I just paranoid?
