1. If you committed no crime (didn’t hurt nor threaten anyone), but I forcibly stopped and frisked you as you were walking by …would that be right?
2. …What if I never said nor wrote down anywhere that I don’t have the right to forcibly stop and frisk random passersby’s? …Would it be okay then?
3. …what if I wore a badge?
Badges, costumes, words, or rituals cannot change morality. Theft, murder, assault, etc are all wrong whether some goons wrote that down on paper or not.

“Legislation,” no matter what it says, is never the *reason* that something is good or bad. As a result, even “laws” prohibiting evil acts, such as assault, murderer and theft, are illegitimate. While people should not commit such acts, it is because these acts themselves are intrinsically evil, not because man-made “laws” say they are wrong.”
