So why knock any regime or government...they make the laws. Which part of the rule of law do you not understand?Nikki wrote:Are you referring to Osama Bin LadenSteveSy wrote:Ok, but does he say he's trying or aiming to kill them or shoot directly at them?

Let's get this straight, he deserves under law to be punished for stating he will act aggressively towards agents. However, Brown is no terrorist....he's an old man with a strongly held belief and when push came to shove he didn't have the balls to back up all his tough talk. He certainly doesn't deserve 25 years for what he did. He'll end up, because he's an anti-government nonconformist, serving more time for a nonviolent crime than if he had molested small children. The truth of the matter is the government severely punishes people who don't conform or are seriously anti-government and act on their opinions, like not paying taxes. People caught engaging in that activity are treated worse than if they molested children.
Steve, which part of the rule of law do you not understand?
Or is it that you only believe in the inforcement of laws with which you agree? In that case, how do you reconcile your opinion with that of your next-door neighbor?
Go back under your rock.
Just because it's a law doesn't instantly legitimize its use. It used to be law that you could own slaves and it was illegal for them to run away from their owners, did that make it right to own slaves?
