Governments don't kill people. People kill people.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

-Stephen Jay Gould

Exactly, but they blamed it on "deer hunters". Obviously, it was a false flag operation, designed to encourage government efforts to disarm aggressive deer in preparation for the final domination of, um, the forest.

Yeah. Try moving to Puntland in Somalia and see how much better of we'd be without Government.

Koolay!

Which governments do You hate? If You say all of them I will... I will... send You provocative pictures of manatees.
Quote: If we take the average world height of people as 175 cm, and multiply this by 250 million. To put in perspective how many governments have killed, if you were to put these corpses standing on top of each other it would be 437,500 km in length. The distance between the Earth and moon is just 384,400 km.

This is what Koolay calls a supportive point.
