[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 1465908, member: 2189"] First off I make no distinction between a so-called liberal or so-called conservative mayor. Both may differ in narrative but they fully agree on the ground in action. That said. As a supporter of the idea of radical free markets myself, Garner IMO was ultimately killed because his free market actions threatened the privileged stores as well as the revenue streams of both the stores (sales) and the state (taxes). Others might catch on and then we'd have.....wait for it......ANARCHY but this time I'm using it in it's true etymological sense. The police were there to suppress a competitor, thus the potential, who threatened a system that both the stores and the state economically benefit themselves which also limits competition. Competition being a hallmark of any truly free market. I mean just think of the disaster if we had an economy that promoted the idea of individual craftsman, sole proprietorship and entrepreneurism? Who would staff those "dark satanic mills"? Opps! I fully support Garner's action as I support all such black and gray market economics as a means to undermine the existing monopoly economy and the State which protects it by monopoly force on behalf of privileged business interests. Garner in his own economic way was thus "burning this bitch to the ground" which is an action I wholeheartedly support. Garner was also exercising his natural rights in seeking what Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence called, "the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Jefferson never argued one had to get permission from the State in order to do so. Albeit Jefferson did have his own contradictions. The idea of any business and state alliance using taxpayer provided goons to violate Jefferson's ideal IMO speaks to the utter rotten core this nation has become. The late Samuel E. Konkin called this form of radical economics Agorism after the greek word Agora meaning gathering place or assembly where in greek culture ideas, goods, knowledge were openly exchanged and without restriction or ruling oversight. Look up Agorism if you want to know more. At the link I posted, free market and Austrian economics professor Tom DiLorenzo covers the point even better than I do. Dr. DiLorenzo's comments were in response to [URL='http://www.lewrockwell.com/lrc-blog/blue-privilege-protects-the-killer-of-eric-garner/'][COLOR=#ff0000][B]these comments[/B][/COLOR][/URL] made by William Grigg. I also see where Shock Jock Michael Savage has also condemned the decision not to indict the cop for murdering Garner. Don't always agree with Savage but always liked that he never follows an absolute party line either. [/QUOTE]
