Unlike you who has apparently done so quite willingly.  I understand that can be hard for you to understand this, but as the calf was unwilling, so was the person minding his own business before his neighbors decided to be busybodies and dictate how he/she was to make use of their own property. Neighbors who then believe it is appropriate to use the government threat of violence to enforce their will. I do find it quite amusing that when defending your position you slip into phrasing the issue in terms of the "democratic process" in the same manner the left defends their attack on the 2A. No "democratic process" may legitimately infringe upon the fundamental liberties of the individual, those things most succinctly described by three words, "life, liberty, property".   As far as why I keep going on with it, I just like to argue. I especially like to argue with folks who claim to believers in the constitution and its foundational principles of individual freedom with the rights of the individual to direct their own life, liberty and property but in reality are nothing more than authoritarian statists whose only real and substantial difference from the brand of marxist/socialist/communist statist they purport to stand against is in the details that they wish to control in the lives of others.    If you live under an HOA, have no fear, I will never be your neighbor. Otherwise, I will ignore illegitimate diktats from petty tyrants and busybodies.

As secure as the calf was in its pen before it became my dinner last night.

Agreed. I don't think anyone is disputing the validity of a voluntarily entered into contract such as an HOA. Some of us just don't like them, so we won't enter into those contracts. You need a new dictionary as the definition of words like "libertarian" in yours seems to have fallen from an inter-dimensional portal from Bizarro Land. :lol: What you described is quite the authoritarian position. What about the person who owned their property prior to their neighbors electing some busybodies who then enacted a law requiring action by that landowner in regards to their property? Your right to use the government to control your neighbors begins and ends at YOUR property line, just as their right to do the same ends at their property line.

I'm just gonna leave this here as this conversation is representative of the point the image is making.

Careful. That's a good way to get your cookin' show cancelled :) http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KVN_0qvuhhw

Q4T! No way in hell will I ever live under an HOA. While the intended purpose may be admirable (collective protection of property values and community standards) too often they are filled with busybody jerkoffs who wish to make their neighbors conform to their will. If they work for you, great. I'm too damn contrarian to live under one. You think you know best how I should use MY property? Offer to by it from me and when I tell you to piss off please go and promptly piss off.

Yesssss!!!!!!!

Na....I will not delete any comments. If people want to talk like an ass clown on the internet let them lol. :up: Deleting comments like that only protects assholes from themselves.

As long as you are from the government it is. As has been alluded to and stated fairly clearly in multiple threads here, at this point in time the government in this country and those that populate it from top to bottom have become enemies of the people and of the Constitution. The state and local houses of government are filled with petty tyrants and some of them have aspirations of joining the real tyrants in Washington.

If he is brought back to the US for trial, best result would be Jury Nullification.

This is a subject that is one of the few that makes me remember that I am spoiled as a Memphian when it comes to our water. Our tap water is cleaner and better tasting than most bottled waters out there. I admit it, I am mostly here to brag about Mempho; don't get to do that much. As far as the asshat from TEDEC, I expect a non-apology apology to be issued soon. Regardless of the public statement, y'all know someone is getting their ass chewed for saying stupid shit in public.

Great video, and point well made.

What he said.

You do realize he is a US senator, right? Just saying.

As an FYI, he was a Republican prior to 2007 when he switched parties to run for (and win) the seat as a Democrat. Who says he won't switch sides again when it is to his benefit?

Actually, that's fact. It's been presented before. Even potential jurors feel the same way when questioned. I didn't make it up.... DS fact /fakt/ Noun A thing that is indisputably the case. Information used as evidence or as part of a report or news article. Synonyms reality - deed - actuality - truth - case - circumstance I thought this might be helpful to you since it appears that you don't have the firmest grasp of the definition of the word "fact". ;)

I found the article to be the most insulting thing to women I have ever read outside the pages of Hustler.

Yeah, he will forever be my hero for dumping that guy. You guys kill me. :lol:

Those are some random arbitrary requirements to come out of the blue. I would be questioning if they took the burden of the expense and time of the training involved in this decision. Might be worth your while to send those questions back up the chain of command. They may rethink matters.

do you lock the windows and doors hahaha I do. :D

I fully expect that if the verdict comes down as anything other than guilty the riots will be almost instantaneous. Pretty much this.

You must be new around here. :lol:

I was against them coming here from the beginning, the math has never added up on that one.

FTFY.

Mmmmmm.....cake.
