The law is not stupid. The absolute lack of common sense in America
is. So is the fact that the richest Americans have, since Eisenhower,
gradually bought more and more of the government until today, they own
it.


A gun in the hand is better than a cop on the phone.

The police are not available to protect you. They are available to
document the crimes you have committed or that have been committed
against you.


Unfortunately, absolutely true.

I'll add another:

"It is better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6"


So true.
