It does thank you for being a good foot soldier that doesnt question its orders.

And when you get caught, arrested, booked, and put in prison, will you still think it's "make believe"?

I am still, however, against city councils passing such bans on private buildings (which includes apartment buildings). Of course, I am against much of what city councils do ('insect authority', per Napoleon).

The fact that anyone could have entertained that idea for even a second, proves that we're doomed.

The people are real. The guns are real. The cages are real.

The moral and logical right of authority to put the plan in motion isn't real.

And dare tell me, who has a moral and logical right to authority?

No one unless you voluntarily consent to giving it someone

Nobody.

You rule you. I rule me.

What makes your consent important? It's not important at all. Mother nature doesn't give even a second thought to your consent. Does it give any value to the gazelle as it's chased and eaten by a lion?

Consent is meaningless.

Government pretends to give you a "right" to consent but can take it away when it wants. You either have to hide, run, or organize enough (and form a competing government) to counteract.

Either your neighbors didn't smoke or you were oblivious.

Smells do get into apartments --- not just smoking but cooking smells, too.
