Until the yoke of authority becomes so oppressive that everybody breaks the law, you are definitely right. They will target people. But once they get so oppressive that everybody is breaking the law and just ignoring them, then they lose all power. After all, they can't arrest everybody. Where would they hold them and who would be in charge of them and who would make them their lattes and shit.

I'm sure people were saying the same thing in 1930s Germany.

Mmmm. Good point. Now there's a frightening thought.

  • Hold them?! * chuckles * No, sir, we will not hold you... Certainly not for longer than this crematorium takes to process you. ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ
