What's really funny is that we say we WANT laws enforced, but then we say we want to be left alone.
Go figure.

HEY G
There's the rub. Maybe humor is how we deal with the angst of liberty.

JOHN:
That's a REALLY cool visual... & it sounds like you've been reading a little bit of Sartre.
G:
I don't see a conflict. As long as I don't violate anyone else's rights, I expect to be left alone. When an individual violates another's rights, I expect a heavy boot to come down on him--& as hard as the offense warrants.
My problem is the litany of immoral "laws" that project power far beyond the wise, prevenient limits set on the legislature by some pretty smart dead guys.
DOC:
