The nature of the force is opposite, and there's no middle ground between the two. No negotiation, no argument.Mike Kevittnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5495065931245897039.post-25049270647222289252017-04-29T08:06:10.484-04:002017-04-29T08:06:10.484-04:00"Both are accomplished by physical force.&quo..."Both are accomplished by physical force."<br /><br />I know you understand this. But for clarity's sake, let me note that physical force to violate our rights is aggressive force. Physical force to protect our rights is defensive against the aggressors who initiate it. Both functions are accomplished by physical force, but the nature of the force is opposite.principled perspectiveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06502754865268315342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5495065931245897039.post-29962168975564261882017-04-28T20:47:22.941-04:002017-04-28T20:47:22.941-04:00Rights, without exercising them, or without the me...Rights, without exercising them, or without the means of exercising them, are meaningless. According to the liberal-progressive version of rights, we need legislation, presidential orders and judicial decisions 'authorizing' picking everybody's pockets to gain the means of exercising rights. According to the individual rights version of rights, we need laws and subsequent presidential orders and judicial decisions to protect our pockets so we can proceed to exercise our rights. Our pockets are either picked or protected. Both are accomplished by physical force. There is no argument nor any middle ground between the two.Mike Kevittnoreply@blogger.com
