What happens when you or I, tells Government NO.


Being bullied is no fun at all for anyone.
Some are scared to fight back against bullies that are much bigger than they are.
Some others don't give it a second thought, because they have been bullied their entire lives.

No we are all viewed as subject/slaves of the Omnipotent Thug State. To say no to any whim of thug government is to open oneself to a death sentence. We are not humans, we are property of the State.

Isn't it humans natural right to be able to tell another human, or group of humans no, without threats of intimidation and violence.

You're jailed or killed, depending on what you're saying "no" to.

Some don't seem to outgrow their brush with Oppositional Defiance Disorder.

Isn't it a humans natural right to defend themselves from bullies, or be oppressed and enslaved by bondage to the bully?


Why can't you or I say No?

If I tell another human NO, should I expect to defend myself immediately?

Why can't you or I say No?
If your rights infringe on mine, no.

What are you being enslaved by? You have to pay taxes? You can't smoke in a public building? Town says you have to mow your lawn after not doing so for three months?
