Humans are innately evil.
Seems Schizophrenic.
As in the Government is Schizophrenic.
Which is unhealthy.
Maybe even innately Evil.

Human beings are NOT innately evil. That idea is the single biggest LIE ever told, used from the dawn of time for nothing else than the oppression of the population... "for their own good".
Human beings are innately compassionate and selfless. What we see to the contrary is humanity's acting out against coercive systems of social order. Government does not deter evil in humanity--it contributes to it on a fundamental level.

Ah. yes, and Mr. Mike, what do people and entitities (which, after all are made up of people) do when stigmatized and labelled? They respond by making their accusers look the same and even worse, don;t they?

Is that the best way I don't know, but what happens if one day you actually use this "rueger?" (I'm not a gun person)

As to labels.
In 1983 my Dad told me that something had changed, and now "we are all law breakers. It's just a question if they choose to enforce it or not." So there is no way to avoid being charged, labeled, or even found guilty of any number of things. Things which you either never heard of or were totally unaware could even exist. Now that there is the even deeper layer of accusation that includes the word terror, the government has a wide range of laws with adjustable levels of heavy handedness with which to apply it.
Every wonder why open exchange of ideas and invention is drying up in this country.
