And you're just the type of person they want to hire. Someone who believes that the ends justifies the means, just like Stalin, and Hitler, and Mao, and Pol Pot, and so many others... Sure, they were a bit more violent, but they didn't start off with murdering people they don't live in the dark, they started off by convincing people that the ends justified the means.

If they hadnt been ruining innocent peoples lives over such trivial "crimes" for decades.
Now what local polices want is access to the NSA database. So when they don't like someone, they can Type your name in and see all the webpages titles you ever clicked, all the conversations you had in instant messaging, find something incriminating so they can get you.

Just about every country that was once Catholic had an inquisition. To fight against heresy. All secret service organisations have done is transform from protecting the sanctity of the faith and those who control it, to protecting the sanctity of the state and those who control it.

See, laws and regulations can change and they should change to allow adaptation to social and economic changes. This is still no argument for attempting to hide things from the eyes of law enforcement though as you still have not mentioned a single thing even remotely comparable to hiding weed.
Also, if you're afraid of the consequences that may follow after something you say maybe you are not the right person to say it.

America is run by Jews. Terrorises countries abroad. Has the largest jail population on the planet (for profit). Has tried to overthrow democratically elected governments.... America is a fucking cesspool that only exists because it's so deeply in debt maintaining it's war machine and is the reason for pretty much all the problems in every country it's stuck it's fucking nose into.

There are any number of laws you can break accidentally in individual locations.
Oops you traveled for work and looked at porn while bored at the hotel. If that municipality has declared porn as not acceptable to community standards, you've just committed a crime.
Oops, you went to new Orleans and fucked some chick off the street in the ass. Ignoring the absolutely awful idea it already was, it's also illegal.
Things MUST be hidden from law enforcement SO THAT the law can change. Perfect enforcement will destroy a society.
Also, don't try to guess your friend's Facebook password, or accidentally open their email homepage when borrowing their computer for a moment. That's a federal crime under the CFAA.

>>54280561
> Things MUST be hidden from law enforcement SO THAT the law can change. Perfect enforcement will destroy a society.
Actually I would argue the precise opposite. The law can only change when crimes are not hidden from law enforcement.
So long as a law does not effect the populace there will be no impetus to change said law. It is only when the people feel the law is hurting them that they will make an effort to change it.
This is why sodomy laws remain in the books despite the widespread commission of sodomy. Nobody cares if a handful of perverts that were caught fornicating in alley get the book thrown at them and have a sodomy charge tacked onto their other crimes. Everyone would care if the police were magically notified every time you received an "illegal" blow-job from your girlfriend.
The way to get the law changed is to ENFORCE it, not pretend it doesn't exist until it suddenly does, and is used to whallop some unsympathetic mook over the head.
>>54280915
you can't track exchange trades, fucko. not without every exchange used in the mix complying. even so, how do you know the person changed money between his own hands or with someone else?

So, you're basically saying we should have laws for the sake of having law and thus we can have justice? And it's only when we have laws for the sake of having laws that we will truly have justice?
An 'impetus' is a general assembly, the imperative in the matter of impetus itself is defined by the need for a ruling on a matter as law does. There could not be a law before the impetus or there would be no precedent, by your logic anyway, for the need of a law.
It's only when you have a need for a law that ENFORCEMENT even becomes a critical factor, hitherto known simply as a problem.
Your logic stands on the basis of familiarity rather than the justices it has assembled to provide.

Michelle Obama isn't. Lol, jk, anyway, it's not like black people aren't going to revolt around what little power Obama brings them. The problem has never been that he will avow too much power to black people from the top, it's that black people will take to Obama's presidency as if it means that they are now the "superiori" race. Maybe not all black people but that's why feminists and red pillers have taken to public fora to spreading "indoctrinate" teachings of experiences with specifically males or females and generally against the unencompassed white male.
