That's the only post in this thread worth reading. Everything that follows this sentence just seeks to expand upon the above.
Certain elements of our society seek to limit your ability to be free in your actions. Those elements are the elderly, middle-aged suburbanite Christian fucks, and other timid cocksuckers who are well past their ability to actually live life. Life is noisy, life is messy, life is exciting, life is dangerous, life is fun. Those who seek to infringe upon the ability of others to live life are already consigned to death. If their intent is to create a perfectly silent, inactive world, let them do it in the privacy of their own homes.
As those who wish to live life, we must take a more active role in our lawmaking process. Check your city and county governments' websites, find out when meetings relevant to personal freedom are being held, and be the voices of dissent.
