It never ceases to amaze me that so many can get so upset over something so innocuous as simply leaving people alone.

[Yeah. Amazing isn’t it? But yet it happens over so many things like homosexuality, skin color, what (if any) religious beliefs you observe, and how many rounds of ammo your gun holds. Why should there even need to be constitutional protection for something so innocuous?—Joe]
How many amendments of the BoR could be condensed into, “Mind your own business, especially you, government?”
… the entire drug war.
It all comes down to… bigotry. Bigotry ought to be the definition of someone that just won’t “Leave me alone.” Unless we can come up with a different word for those that won’t mind their own f-ing business.
“…different word for those that won’t mind their own f-ing business.”
“Criminals” works for me. It’s a classic. If you’re not violating someone’s rights, and someone else comes after you saying “STOP, OR ELSE!” they’re a criminal.
“Those damned libertarians. They want to take over the government, and then LEAVE YOU ALONE!”
