[s-cars] RE: diffs, donuts, and Johnny Law

[Ian Duff]

Peace. I was only making a sarcastic comment (what a surprise) on the
likelihood of prisoners making the license plates with that motto. Any
political opinions I have I keep mostly to myself these days (to the best of
my limited ability), and mostly off the various lists to which I subscribe.
Sorry to have started this political thread. Can we end it now, before it
goes any further?

FYI

"Live free or die, death is not the worst of evils" was written by Gen, John
Stark of NH at the end of a letter he sent to a reunion of Revolutionary War
veterans some years after the war.  At the time he was too ill to attend the
reunion.

While obnoxious to various philosophies of slavery, e.g., communism, the
concept expressed by Gen. Stark should be understood as an expression of the
importance of liberty, in the sense it was understood in the late Eighteenth
century.

New Hampshire's problem is not its motto.  NH's problem is the same as
exists on the Federal level -- creeping totalitarianism that derives from
nannies wanting to control people for their own good, and to reallocate teh
people's wealth for their own good.  It is abetted by the desire of the
Judicial branches to branch out into legislating, instead of just
adjudicating.

Thus we have, for example, a Federal Government whose structures and
activities are in great part contrary to the Constitution of the United
States.  If we were still a Constitutional Republic, there would have to be
many Constitutional Amendments to bring the Government into compliance.  And
if the NH Judiciary spent its time making NH laws self consistent and
compliant with the State and Federal Constitutions, they wouldn't have time
to legislate.  Spare time could be spent reducing the Court's backlog.
