Now I know.”

"When someone steals... they are not just taking an item, they are taking the time, the hours of life, and the money that went into being able to acquire that item. ...Allowing this behavior to pass as a ‘small thing’ and to try to couch it under ‘well, theft is a non-violent crime’ ... negates the fact that it is still a crime and one that often escalates to violence.” - "Midwest Chick”

"You get no moral credit for forcing other people to do what you think is right.  Helping poor and suffering people is compassion.  Voting for our government to use guns to give money to help poor and suffering people is immoral self-righteous bullying laziness.” - Penn Jillette

"The threat of... violence is used by bureaucrats and various representatives of the looter/moocher classes to extract payments, of course.  But it doesn’t matter.  Something that can’t go on forever, won’t, and current expenditures can’t go on forever, so they won’t.  If that leads to violence, then there will be violence.  But I don’t believe that violence in a broke country with limited financial options and limited political patience will receive the same payoff as violence in a rich country with lots of options and extensive patience.” - Glenn Reynolds
