Because The State Loves You

Without the State, I might walk down the street texting my friend about pot while carrying a shingling hammer, distributing free pamphlets about where to buy raw milk, all while video taping myself in action. If anyone tried to do that in real life the entire world would implode in an apocalyptic disaster. Only the State can keep us safe from ourselves.


It must do the following to you:

• Arrest you for shingling your own home.
  
  
• Arrest you for selling raw milk.
  
  
• Arres t you for distributing free pamphlets.
  
  
• A rrest you for legally carrying a concealed weapon.
  
  
• Fine you for selling lemonade.
  
  
• Arrest you for swearing.
  
  
• Arrest you for asking a judge questions on his way to court.
  
  
• Arrest you for asking questions at a city council meeting.
  
  
• Arrest you for video taping police while they are performing their duties in public.
  
  
• Arrest you for video taping a public policy meeting in a public venue.
  
  
• Arrest you for feeding homeless people.
  
  
• Arrest you for locking your pets in a parked car for a brief period of time.
  
  
• Arrest you for standing around on a public sidewalk.
  
  
• Arrest you for dancing in public.
  
  
• Arrest you for reading the Bible aloud in public.
  
  
• Arrest you for not giving your child medication that they have a reaction to.
  
  
• Arrest you for merely linking to sites that contain copyrighted material.
  
  
• Arrest you for walking down a sidewalk while texting.
  
  
• Arrest you for giving out hugs.
  
  
• Arrest you for farting.
  
  
• Arrest you for carrying a Bic lighter and multi-tool.
  
  
• Fine you for eating doughnuts in public playground.
  

And that’s just in the past 6 months.

Note, that I didn’t even touch on the evil horrors of adults voluntarily trading money for recreational drugs like tobacco, alcohol, pot, ecstasy or coc aine between themselves.

But these acts of benevolence pale in comparison to the outpouring of love that occurs when:

• The State beats you for being handcuffed in a patrol car.
  
  
• The State beats you for not signing a confession.
  
  
• The State beats you because your kid committed suicide.
  
  
• The State kills you because you are homeless.
  
  
• The State beats you because you didn’t zip up your sweater.
  
  
• The State destroys your property because you are homeless.
  
  
• The State beats you for clapping your hands.
  
  
• The State beats you for video taping police.
  
  
• The State kills you for getting into an argument with your mother.
  
  
• The State kills you for defending your home from armed invaders.
  

It is difficult for me to express my level of gratitude to the State in its efforts to keep me safe from myself.

I feel all warm and fuzzy inside! Though I suppose that could just be the tasing the state loves to give out... Good thread. Can't wait for government employees to come and defend their master.

The State loves me this I know.
For the police told me so.
All of us to it belong.
We are weak, the State is strong.

Yes, the State loves me.
Yes, the State loves me.
Yes, the State loves me.

The police have told me so.

I know your topic is anything but funny but I couldn't help laugh my tail off by how you present it. Nice!

Great information too. I am bookmarking this to pass along to others who need a simple way of being introduced to how bad things have gotten.

Are you the guy who wrote this article? Because I don't see any credit given...

Because the State Loves You

You always provide great topics and posts here. S&F


And yes, while some were funny, it is a sad day in the US that this was even needed to be created.

And get ready for more, as the Govt is only here to protect us..................from ourselves.

Society in every state is a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one: for when we suffer, or are exposed to the same miseries BY A GOVERNMENT, which we might expect in a country WITHOUT GOVERNMENT, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer.

I think it describes the current state of affairs we find ourselves in quite well. Good Job OP S&F!

Murray Rothbard used to ask people "Do you hate the State?" as a way of weeding out the true libertarians from the posers.

Hating people who rob from you is normal and healthy.

turn yourself in..seek profession help.. ask your doctor if numbitalll is for you.
dont touch that dial..touching that dial can result in penalties ..
welcome to the new world order. where policies = police.

[sarcasm] Yeah but at the very least the plebs are now disarmed and medicated so they can safely enjoy Dancing With the Puppets or Jersey Snore with their genetically modified grain beer made with fluoridated water, without fear of rabid falling shingles and student loan dodgers running amok.

I think it would just be best if we gave every police officer the right to hold public executions, we can set that up on Pay-Per-View and make another quick buck for our benevolent always loving caretakers. Judging by the attitudes of police and police supporters on ATS the police are angels because they follow the rules so stringently, that they will willingly KILL YOU DEAD for resisting their SUPPOSED authority to give something like a speeding ticket. Bless the police! The rules say they can do it! It doesn't matter that the rules themselves are wrong... Nope the great and holy state is always right, after all its for our protection! [/sarcasm]


Makes you sick doesn't it? At this point the only thing people in the US can do is study some law so they can realize that all the dumb rules cities and government enact only affect the city or government.

For example.

The code the city is trying to enforce for roof shingles only applies to sworn officers of the city when working in their capacity as officer for the city. Meaning if the city needed new shingles on the city hall they are held to their code. Nowhere does the building code apply to the private property or individual. At some point the private person granted some sort of jurisdiction to the city to apply the code to his private self/property. Usually this jurisdiction is granted when a private person agrees to the contract of property taxes by acquiescence. Learning how to remove ones self from the implied contract makes a world of difference.

Yeah, I really do try to limit the amount of cursing in my writing. I try and save it only for the stuff that makes me furiously angry (which has been fairly frequently these days, as the string of articles in the OP can attest to.)

Good writing doesn't need it to get the point across.

A continued fan of your posts here. What is sad, is that I remember all of these articles being posted here...only the past 6 months though...wow.

People seem to be coming apart at the seems lately as they can't process all the things happening.
