Proudly delegitimizing the state since 2005 "Aye, free! Free as a tethered ass!" —W.S. Gilbert"All the affairs of men should be managed by individuals or voluntary associations, and . . . the State should be abolished." —Benjamin Tucker "You must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself." —James Madison "Fat chance." —Sheldon Richman
This is an excellent example of a stick-figure straw-man argument.
There's a big difference between a stick figure and a strawman. The equivalent of this exchange happens all the time. Just look and listen.
I've heard that "I have lots of Jewish friends" is overused and unconvincing. Next time this happens, I'll try "Kippahs are so hip!" and "Matzah balls are delicious!"
I'm just joking of course :P
