Turf War Blooms Over Front-Yard Vegetable Gardening

The principle that society is entitled to make rules for its collective betterment that may disadvantage some individuals is not in dispute. The point that you have missed is the ridiculous scope and impossibility of clear definition of the rules that some people believe they are entitled to foist on to others. There are some rules that should not be made because the test that the betterment of society exceeds the loss of individual freedom is not met. There are some that should not be made because defining them unambiguously and enforcing them equitably is not possible. This one is both. For a country whose public mythos features freedom of the individual very strongly there seem a great many who are ready to declare that you may be as free as you like as long as you agree with *their* way of life and *their* view of right conduct. This is a good recipe for a conformist authoritarian society which those same people spend their energy railing against. How do they justify such illogical behaviour? Simple. They are right and the rest are wrong so everybody shut up and do as you told. Or as you put it, if you don't like it move away. You sound like a moron, which is what you are. LOL! The pot calling the kettle black again! |
