Where did I get the danish cartoons from there? I mean they are relative to the discussion, but I don't know why I drew it from the post quoted.

I never mentioned the benevolence of rulers. And as far as believing in rights- who cares. Believing in them is meaningless unless you have a system in place that protects and upholds them.

You clearly concluded that, because I do not think government is necessary, I do not believe in "rights." That is fallacious. Also, where do you get the feeling I am not a nice person? Just because we don't agree on a particular subject?

Oh I know in GDW Utopia every citizen an afford private security and everyone just gets along and all the bad people live on an island where they never bother to build a cannoe to go harass the other people in the world. But in reality, not so much.

Magicfish, I'm aware of what you are saying, but that is irrelevant to whether or not I was putting words in your mouth.
Also, I am not against people governing themselves at all. And there are plenty of ways to do it without a centralized monopoly on force. Also, I think it should be clear that I was not arguing you should be able to yell whatever you want in a crowded theater without consequences.

I've provided several sources that cover that in detail.
