In re the crime wave washing over Ann Arbor; cops say 'don't worry'

There have been a spate of armed robberies of late in Ann Arbor and which is a bad thing for our community, (and especially bad if you're the one with the gun barrel in you face), whatever the cops say about gun violence being "rare" in Ann Arbor.

District of Columbia police arresting drivers for expired license tabs. It's not just the law it's the principle of the thing

The "principle" the DC cops want to make clear being: "We can stop you, arrest you, tow your vehicle, fine you, and put you in jail for even the smallest things. So get with the program." The true nature of government is now revealed but not for the first time, eh?

Just so you peons know how it is

The basis for the state's existence defined in simple terms attributed to Gary Brecher AKA "the War Nerd".

The government makes us pay taxes and obey it's laws on the grounds that the state claims "... all the land, on the legal basis that if you objected they’d kill you.”

So there you are. Bet they didn't teach you that in high school civics class or in American Government 100 in college did they? For that insight you'd have to take a 400 level political philosophy class or maybe even go to graduate school.
