RE: Above the law? Does the law even apply? What's the evidence?
Are you arguing that the Constitution doesn't apply to you?
Then, we don't need to let you speak? We don't need to let you carry a gun? We shouldn't let you assemble to protest or follow any religion?
You seem to look at the law as something to control you, when it really exists to protect everyone. Taxes are the cost of that protection, as well as your voice in the government through voting, free speech and protest.
Are you inferring that you would use force to keep people from speaking if this document didn't exist?
I'm simply asking for evidence. Do you have evidence that it applies to me? If yes, what is it?
Who is this "we"? Why is it up to you whether I speak or carry a gun? I see a lot of claims here but not evidence
Anyone, everyone. It's not up to me, it's up to any group with the strength to take your gun. You don't see evidence because you refuse to look at reality.
If this evidence is such an obvious part of reality, where is it?
The sky is clear, therefore the constitution applies to me? Non-sequitur. If your claims are so self evident then why are you still putting forth conjecture instead of putting the evidence on the table?
The sky is blue is your evidence that some people have the right to meddle with our lives and steal our property? Is this a religion of yours? Doesn't seem very far from ancient religions where the fact that the sun rises every morning was proof of the existence of some god that had the right to claim that infants had their hearts ripped out of their tiny bodies.
Look up. Can you see the sky? That's because the government sets pollution limits. That's evidence you ignore.
Look at your post. You're publicly questioning the government. That is because the US Military has prevented another government from ruling you and silencing dissent. That is evidence.
Can you walk or drive down the street safely? That is because the government sets safety standards for cars, and rules for driving and punishes people who break those rules. That is evidence.
Do you have a home? That is because the government protects property rights, so no one stronger than you can simply kick you out.
Look around, basically any time peoples' carelessness or vindictiveness is not hurting you it's because the government has set laws against it.
It's evidence you are benefitting frlm society's laws.
For the second time: Where is your evidence the law is illegitimate?
It's not up to you to prove your claims? Who is it up to? You're saying you have no evidence then? How is it that your claims reflect reality given that you can't even provide supporting evidence?
"Where's your supporting evidence that the government doesn't apply to you?"
"Government"? I asked about the constitution. Do you have any evidence that "government" exists as anything tangible or is it just a euphemism for men and women who force people to pay them?
Sounds like a no
Wow. That was "it's not up to me to prevent you from speaking."
So... where's YOUR supporting evidence that the government doesn't apply to you?
