Do you actually give a damn on a moral level anymore? The moral principals that define my integrity, and my ethics are all that concern me any longer. I fear the law, but have no respect for it, mainly due to its biased application. A government this corrupt deserves no respect and no support from honest folks.

I have zero respect for the vast majority of our current lawmakers. I have the utmost respect for the LEO's and armed service members who are our there making sure we keep those original ideals intact. Believe me - there are some that are still out there, and it's unfair to paint them all with a broad brush. I have zero respect for the ones who do otherwise. And I'm damn glad I grew up in the era I did, and not the current one.

The government is not my moral compass. The government is not just a little corrupt or unjust in the course of doing its work, but in fact the government is primarily an agent of corruption and injustice. Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

I haven’t had respect for the law for quite some time and don’t see that changing anytime soon. �Politicians are the lowest form of life on earth.

With the caveat that if certain govt officials caught me, I would have to pay tribute. I also avoid hanging out with people who think they have to live their lives according to the opinions of politicians.

When they start doing any part of the work they are contracted to do, instead of targeting and marginalizing the people who feed and clothe them, I might think about it. Until then, I do what I want, and the very best thing they can do is stay away from me and find other people to bother.

I find myself disregarding laws I used to respect. Screw them. Same here. Also find myself teaching my kids they don’t have to automatically respect teachers, administrators, clergy, the elderly, LEO’s, judges, physicians etc… the way my parents taught me that these folks all deserved respect based solely on title. That respect should be based on merits.
