In a democracy, that is, by definition, fascism. The majority are always right. That is, as you said, the will of the people. In your country and mine, the majority think that the government should tax and spend wisely, the only quibble comes with where it is spent and how much.
Your argument here boils down to: this is mine, the goooverment can’t take it. Wrong, the people have spoken. You have to have some of your wealth taken, as I do, to pay for the bedrock of the society you want to live in. Roads, sewers, defence, care for the elderly and less fortunate, etc. Suck it up.
I don’t recall any of the sensible people commenting here saying comments of Hunter are verboten.
My opinion, shared by many, is he is a very naughty boy, a flawed man, deeply hurting, who has clawed his way back with the help of Joe – Dad of the Year – and is answering the perfectly legitimate charges brought against him.
I think the deal he initially struck with the authorities was appropriate for a first time offender who was cooperating, but I see the hidden hand of an Orange Felon in the prosecution hidden in the woodwork pushing the scales of justice the wrong way. I expect him to actually beat the rap in court, as it hinges on was he on drugs at the time, which is in serious doubt.
And you hold these views? Were you playing with the crayons at the back of class?
