When I was a 26 year old male I was an active freeper.
My life experiences watching guys I knew from school, work, socially go through the meatgrinder that is the legal/prison industry in NJ/NY has turned two entire generations against the ‘rule of law’ as has been dictated to us in our lives.
As this recession turned into a lost decade, the few remaining people our age living inside the bubble look more and more like gerbils to a larger and larger majority of the population. A population that is no more or less criminally inclined than any prior generation, but burdened with millions of pages of new laws and regulations that all result in imprisonment and/or probation/supervisory sentences.
Worse yet, this attitude is also held by the vast majority of LEOs near my age too. Speed traps on gerbils bring in revenue. As LEOs in NJ/NY have fixed pensions that kick in early, large numbers of baby boomer LEOs are retiring every day (earlier than almost all private sector baby boomers and even most public sector baby boomers in comparison), being replaced with a new doctrinal attitude... etc.
Second, if HeritageRomneyObamacare is ruled Constitutional, we are gonna have alot mo' criminals.
This is what our older FReepers (I'm in my 7th decade) do not appreciate. The toll upon younger males due to all these regulations and the apparatus in place to provide the Matrix. It's a national disgrace.
