Very good. Since our constitution is being decimated I'll defer to one of the founding fathers. If you stand for nothing, you'll fall for anything. -Alexander Hamilton
The "Letter from Birmingham Jail", also known as the "Letter from Birmingham City Jail" and "The Negro Is Your Brother", is an open letter written on April 16, 1963, by Martin Luther King Jr. It says that people have a moral responsibility to break unjust laws and to take direct action rather than waiting potentially forever for justice to come through the courts. Responding to being referred to as an "outsider", King writes: "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."
Yeah. I remember learning about the same concept in world history before eventually coming across it in MLK Jr.'s words in US History, via Henry David Thoreau:
"If the injustice is part of the necessary friction of the machine of government, let it go, let it go: perchance it will wear smooth—certainly the machine will wear out. If the injustice has a spring, or a pulley, or a rope, or a crank, exclusively for itself, then perhaps you may consider whether the remedy will not be worse than the evil; but if it is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then I say, break the law. Let your life be a counter-friction to stop the machine. What I have to do is to see, at any rate, that I do not lend myself to the wrong which I condemn." —Civil Disobedience

Why the hell isn’t Musk gone already? What they’re doing is clearly unconstitutional and AGAINST THE LAW! What the actual fuck!!!
Rs no longer care about the law.
But they're currently in charge of enforcing it.
Fuckers
