Mass murder is not committed by anarchists. It is committed by governments and paid for by the sweat of the working man's brow.

Government is the pimp daddy Houdini of all parasites because it is one slick talker and it owns the presses of propaganda.

[Kat Kanning]

"Non-violent resistance implies the very opposite of weakness.
Defiance combined with non-retaliatory acceptance
of repression from one's opponents is active, not passive.
It requires strength, and there is nothing automatic or intuitive
about the resoluteness required for using non-violent methods
in political struggle and the quest for Truth."
-- Mahatma Mohandas K. Gandhi
(1869-1948)
1936

"....leave the gun, .....take the cannollies."

-Clemenza

[Bald Eagle]

The convoluted wording of legalisms grew up around the necessity to hide from
ourselves the violence we intend toward each other. Between depriving a man of
one hour from his life and depriving him of his life there exists only a
difference of degree. You have done violence to him, consumed his energy.
Elaborate euphemisms may conceal your intent to kill, but behind any use of
power over another the ultimate assumption remains: "I feed on your energy."
-Addenda to Orders in Council The Emperor Paul Muad'dib

"Nothing is worse than being alone
on the evening of the day when one's
cow has exploded."
