Victim disarmament zones

And yes, I'm at a point beyond rage over this shit. Its like living in a prison full of mentally insane children who cannot grasp the nature of simple Newtonian physics.

Personally I would rather be calling the shots on who can refine uranium and for what purpose. But we are taxed without representation. We have no power to stop the atrocities of our military industrial complex (EVEN Armed as we are).

But I don't want to see my beloved violent society fall further into the tub of apathetic me-tooism that every yuppy wants.

Sure we should have government. And control on crazy shit like nuclear weapons. But we are way beyond the red line when it comes to freedom in these things. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory agency is so fucked we can't even properly roll out newer safer reactors and are stuck with 1950's tech and a monopolistic energy industry run by DoE thugs in bed with the DoD.

Will guns fix that, hell no. Are they the solution right now? No. Will giving up our guns fuck us even worse? Yeah these guys will fuck you so hard your descendents will be enslaved for the next 200 years.

NOTHING will change until we start drawing lines in the sand and saying NO MORE.

We have this right. And it is a GOOD RIGHT to stand for. It is a good place to draw the fucking lines.

I'd give my left nut to not have to pay a trillion fucking dollars for the right to broadcast a show not full of propaganda on a not state owned fucking TV system.

Though What you say makes sense. Its the socialist way of doing it. Can't say its bad. But its not great either.

I take it anything like PBS is illegal in the UK. I learned a lot from PBS as a kid.

The BBC is chartered by the government and is primarily funded by this fee, as it is a public service network, and was originally created to deliver impartial information to the public, but has obviously expanded into other programming. It is basically the British equivalent of PBS, so why would something like PBS be illegal? It similarly has children's programming. They have plenty of other stations, channel 4 being the second largest there, which is privately owned and has commercials.

PBS is an opt in system.

And less government controlled. Except by the FCC. So the British just combine the FCC with their PBS's and make it mandatory.

From what I can tell. That is less free still.

Actually, the BBC is quite autonomous now, but kind of lumps all public broadcasting into 1 place. I think you have a bigger option in the case of the BBC, as PBS is funded through tax (aside from the ways it generates other revenues, similar to what the BBC does). Tax is mandatory, whereas the license is only mandatory if you want to own a TV and watch broadcasted television. I suppose the only problem with this is that you can't watch stations that don't receive any benefit from the license fee. However, BBC broadcasting there has many of the good shows, plus no ads, so everyone watches it.

Anyway my arguments still stand IMO. I don't want to copy 'gun free places' I don't like how they do their business in Britain. I've listed to many British commoners talk about their country. And while its certainly not a hell hole. Shit like self defense is a major problem there. Even when it doest' involve guns.

Not the slippery slope I want to be slippery slidin.
