"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
The Making of a Prison Society
Submitted by Michael Dunn on Wed, 2011-11-30 01:00
"...every public demonstration -- however peaceful and orderly it might be -- is to be treated as the equivalent of a prison riot.
