On TV we've been seeing images of the remaining inhabitants of New Orleans being arrested and removed from their homes.
Why is it that so many people suffer from the illusion that an 'emergency' must beget compulsion?
Why do some life-forms see in a tragedy the opportunity to push people around?
Oh, yes, they say, 'it is for their own good', so they blunder in with guns and handcuffs to show how much they care.
The troops are ready for anything, approaching wooden screen doors with machine-guns pointed, just in case anybody should take the US Constitution seriously; presumably these people will be shot dead.
At least the looters were only stealing things, souls and dignity under cover of darkness. These 'leaders' are doing it under cover of the Dark Age.
