    Bring The Violence
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    It's significant.


    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    The american government is given its monopoly on violence by the people and it is willfully and happily supported by the people. nothing wrong with a little roughness.

    Ja Mata, Tosa.

    The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the forces of the Crown. It may be frail; its roof may shake; the wind may blow through it; the storm may enter; the rain may enter; but the King of England cannot enter – all his force dares not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement! - William Pitt the Elder

    it was a bit of a joking statement.

    but people are far quicker to blame the victim than the officer in cases like police abuse.

    and yeah strike true but i would say the government is like verizon and those other violent entities are like well...... those service providers i dont care enough about to learn the names of.
