I do not recall anyone accusing you of statism on the SMC call to cut Nazi net access -- probably because I deleted all that tedious crap, not because nobody accused you. I and others accused you of statism on various other matters, such as your claim that those who fail to pay taxes steal from society, and I just accused you of always changing the subject to Nazism whenever somebody accuses you of statism. And I also accused you of talking about Nazism much too much. And what happened: You immediately changed the subject to Nazism. Cut the nazism, please. Statism is sometimes on topic. Nazism will not be on topic until the next serious threat to Nazi's net access. --------------------------------------------------------------------- | We have the right to defend ourselves | http://www.jim.com/jamesd/ and our property, because of the kind | of animals that we are.

[blah blah blah deleted] I just wanted to point out that, for those who had any remaining doubt, the evolution of this thread demonstrates quite well the need for a separate coderpunks list. Raph

I quite agree, as I said in the part of the message that James snipped. I'm learning a lot lurking on coderpunks. I'm also learning a lot on alt.revisionism and talk.politics.libertarian. I'm glad we have all of those. -rich
