“I lose no sleep over the deaths of career IRS collections thugs or other ‘enforcer’-type government agents, nor do I have even the tiniest of violins to play for their money-grubbing relatives trying, through similar government-enforced tactics, to get their filthy paws on assets belonging to others who committed no wrong against them. That said, I do believe there are certainly more clearly ethical and more effective options available to proponents of freedom in the realm of nonviolence — options that do not invoke the damaging appearance of ceding the moral high ground to the state, nor the self-destructiveness of sinking to the level of government agents.” (03/11/10)
