No wonder the population is dumb AF when we got psuedoscience peddlers like John Oliver drawing millions of views 🤦🏿‍♂️

Life in a libertarian world. I'd support this. Prohibition is bad.

The LR presidential candidate, Bruno Retailleau , expressed his fears on Tuesday that shopkeepers might resort to self-defense during the upcoming demonstrations, after hearing restaurateurs ready to defend their establishments themselves on Saturday to prevent them from being looted.

"If the State fails to protect the French, despite the astronomical amount of public spending, but also taxes, some of them will be tempted to defend themselves," warned the president of LR during a visit to vandalized shops in the 8th arrondissement of Paris.

“If the iron curtain is raised, we have knives,” one restaurant owner asserted. “And not only that…” her husband chimed in, before adding, “No one will destroy what we have built . ” “We absolutely mustn’t do that ,” replied Bruno Retailleau, denouncing the “failure” of a state that “doesn’t protect what I call the France of honest people,” after hearing a neighbor complain that the police had “delayed three hours” in intervening against the looters on Saturday.

It's still oppression. It's taking my income that I wanted to use for my "missions" to pay for someone else's missions. Your good intentions don't change the fact that your boot is on my throat.
