Must read: ‘The Non-Compliance Revolution’

Theo Caldwell:

My mistrust has been a long time coming. Bit by bit, seeing abuses of petty authority and the relentless transformation of police departments into paramilitary units, I have ceased to see them as keepers of the peace. Instead of disrupting crime, it seems they prioritize controlling and harassing innocent people. (…)

More directly, whenever someone claiming to be a policeman, or some other kind of enforcement “officer,” comes hulking up to you in the full get-up — knee-pads, Kevlar, Velcro and so on — you, as a free citizen and inheritor of God-given, enumerated liberties dating back at least to the English Bill of Rights of 1689, if not the Magna Carta of 1215, have an obligation to laugh in that person’s face. If the best you can do is laugh into their Bane-mask, so be it.
