Show me where I agreed to the

No wait, I've got an even better one. NAME your "society"! Go ahead! There is a maxim at law that states, "If a thing's name is not known, all
knowledge of it will perish".
You see, I don't mind agreeing to a transparent contract when I have full disclosure. But where and when did I agree to go to jail if I use an herbal
medicine that the petrochemical/textile/pharmaceutical industries got to be "illegal"? I didn't! Ever!
Your argument seems to relate to "some evils are necessary". I call B.S. on that. It's much more like "some evils are profitable".
even if not all of us agree with them.. if you continually violate them by speeding because you want to, drinking and driving because you don't care,
refusing to pay tickets because you feel you're better than everyone else..
Whoa, whoa whoa... So, in a city that gouges its people for
upwards of 5 dollars an hour for parking, you think that someone who refuses to pay does so simply because they think they are "better than everyone
else"? Really? is that what you honestly think? when was the last time you felt nothing but lint in your pocket?
well many of those result in
simple fines.. but if you keep on keepin' on .. you deserve some jail time ..
Show me the contract! Civilization means civil, and civil means
contractual. Come on, big boy with your fangs... I dare you! Show me the contract! Bah... I know you won't, because you can't, because the only
contracts currently in force against normal every day people are ADHESION contracts. Learn what that means.
Society rules...
Uhh, which society?
if you don't like them.. buy yourself an island and make your own, that's my feeling on the
matter..
That's what is known in law as a Tort. It's a crime against me to claim me as your slave/participant in your nameless, nebulous
"society", if it is against my will. Just because I was born here and your nameless society has almost everyone else bamboozled, does not make it any
less a crime.
if enough of us don't like them then we should rally and change society .. that's how it works.
Says... you?
