I have a good friend who is a Deadhead, and he was at a party once with a lot of other Deadheads and some Hell's Angels. He said he saw one of the Deadheads approach one of the Hell's Angels and say "Hey, can I ask you a question?", to which the Hell's Angel replied "Is it gonna be a stupid question?" after which it got sort of quiet in the room (for a party, anyway).<br /> I asked Mark what he did then and he said "Covered up my tie-dye with my jacket, mostly."<br /><br /> -Doug in Sugar Pinedinthebeasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12941071534250216503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924773307171301256.post-36790716379934234052020-11-21T14:54:17.262-05:002020-11-21T14:54:17.262-05:00RAH had a way of cutting to the bone.

Good read all.<br /><br />There are two words interlocked, freedom and responsibility. to whom <br />is one responsible, the belief its only to oneself is faulty. The <br />other is to everyone whose lives you may impact.<br /><br />It was in the Declaration of Independence that gave us "life, liberty, <br />and the pursuit of happiness". The latter two are inextricably tied <br />to remaining alive. The founders knew this well, they didn't take it <br />lightly.<br /><br />The price is that one must not impinge on another life or liberty and <br />happiness will be fore-shortend. Modern way is your fist or disease <br />is to stop at my nose and failing that, I get to deal the return blow.<br /><br />You want to get Covid or believe its not real, there is a price <br />to pay. You may die or you may pass it to someone that may die,<br />possibly both. Giving it to others allows for retribution in the <br />form of restraint applied to you though the use of law or simple <br />extermination. The latter is potentially validated as you are <br />a threat.<br /><br />So with that said the proper case for the gathered crowds is <br />a fence around the facility they gathered in and food and <br />water tossed over the fence until two weeks after the last <br />infection is a suitable course of action. Seems fair as you <br />put life of others at risk so therefore liberty and happiness <br />is suspended for a brief while. Quarantine them all, no <br />fines or jail. Attempts to escape during the period of <br />quarantine will be capture and sequestered for an additional <br />two weeks minimum and clear C-19 test in a more secure spot.<br /><br /><br />Eck!Eck!https://www.blogger.com/profile/13890237094647111653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924773307171301256.post-67342626868326344542020-11-21T13:41:21.457-05:002020-11-21T13:41:21.457-05:00"Word." for the post.

While Heinlein couches his words in (((The Natural Order))), that stupid doesn't generally need help killing itself, who is to define the natural order? RAH was what we'd call today one of them Libitards, one of them republicans smokin' pot, and throughout his work survival - of the individual, the family, the species - was paramount, by whatever means necessary. <br /><br /><i>Farnham's Freehold</i> is a fun read.
