Vermithrax]What I also find funny about your argument is that if everyone since the beginning of this country had subscribed to your line of thinking, the civil rights movement never would have taken place.
What I believe you are essentially saying is that every American citizen should follow the law and the decisions of courts without questions because to do otherwise infringes upon the rights of others. The status quo should never be challenged and people should simply comply with each and everything their government demands because it's right.
We got where we are today by the challenging the system and people standing up to the government when they believed its actions were wrong. Say what you will about the situation, but the government didn't back down at Waco. Yet they have backed down now, under the premise of "officer safety". This alone should speak volumes to you about what's going on because they didn't give a damn about officer safety at Waco. If the government is so godamn right and sure of what it's done, why is it backing down?
I've got no problem with civil disobedience. What these people did was not civil disobedience. You're trying to put a square peg in a round hole.
