J.C. Earnharth: I think…
J.C. Earnharth: I think there is something to be said for not allowing liberty to be swamped under by non-liberty minded folks.
Are you suggesting that the government has the right to use force against immigrants on the basis of their political opinions? Or, worse, on the basis of political opinions they may not even hold but happen to be held by a lot of people from their former home?
The post is about whether immigration without a government permission slip ought to be treated as criminal. Do you seriously think that liberty is going to be enhanced by condemning immigrants who don’t notify the government of their whereabouts and intentions at all times, and praising those who patiently trudge through years of pointless paperwork?
J.C. Earnharth: It’d be one thing if our nation was the nation of 1815, where basically the economic laws of gravity associated with liberty and freedom pretty much forced you to behave in a liberty oriented fashion in the U.S.
Yeah, unless you were a white planter in the South. Then there was that little slavery and ethnic cleansing thing.
But hey, who’s counting?
