| no resolution... By David Arthur Johnston 15/10/2002 At 18:09 babylonicide until the fallacy of pride is fully acknowledged death before paying taxes death before compliance with corruption death before anger know your right- which is to be conscientious know that the cop's job is to judge conscientiousness--- the Charter acknowledges the supremacy of God---- it really really really does supersede any and all prohibition DO NOT BE PROUD, AT ALL COSTS DO NOT SUPPORT THE PROUD, AT ALL COSTS If a place is going to be free then let it be free---- there is no freedom in capitalism---STOP USING MONEY, AT ALL COSTS--- it is infinitely more fun to suffer all sufferings then it is to be proud--- come hang out down at the Causeway (Victoria, BC, Canada) and observe that there is no intimidation stronger than genuine humility however crazy, the passification of God is real and there is no escaping it love love, me, David who is you who is God
