Wow, speed limits are bullshit? Ok, I bet you I could find plenty of cops and EMT drivers and doctors and MEs that would say without compunction "fuck you".

What the hell are you some utopian anarchist? "No rules" ok, you want to live in a country with "no rules" Somalia would be great for you. That is an example of "fuck you I got mine" country where only those with guns and money make the rules.

I want speed limits. I fucking hate assholes who tailgate me and put my life at risk because they think they are fucking entitled to speed. Fuck you, your rights end where my face begins.

Civil society requires rules otherwise you have dictatorships where one man or one party make them.

In the west you rights are NOT violated simply because a rule is made that you might not like. There are tons of laws I don't like, but that is what lawmakers are for, that is what the Supreme Court is for, and that is what voting is for. We get to decide, not me alone, not you alone, WE and when WE as a society don't like something we OBEY the law until we can change it.

The morgue is full of dumbasses who think "entitlement" means projecting a utopia on a diverse society. We have speed limits, I like having speed limits and most people do. We have traffic lights too. Get over it.
