The Einsatzgruppen-Gestapo thugs overstepped, and thought they could treat a foreign diplomat as they have become used to treating we dumb Mundanes on a daily basis.

Maybe the same universe where sodomy is called &amp;quot;marriage,&amp;quot; I suppose. If billiards be illegal, why not football games, spelling bees, solitaire and tiddly winks to name just a few?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the game possibly being an arm of organized crime, plainly put, let&amp;#39;s have some organized crime, shall we?  This present iteration of the world will always host entrepeneurs suited to provide the means and venues for men to pursue their vices.  You can make everything that is commonly considered a vice illegal, but if there is no coercion or aggression involved, it really ain&amp;#39;t none of your business, and people free to choose or deny temptation should be left alone. Let God punish and reward as He alone sees fit.  Because when you aim to be your brother&amp;#39;s conscience, you must become a government to enforce your will against him.  And all government, by all historical and  empirical proof, is the biggest organized crime family of all.  But when you aim to live and let live, organized crime is an oxymoron.  Crime consists only of first-strike aggression, force and fraud.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before one eschews gambling and strip clubs, first one ought to eschew hypocrisy, as Our Lord&amp;#39;s admonishment about slivers and beams points out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is by this same scriptural admonishment that we come to know this truth:  Even God hates a snitch.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32869165/454841412772566151/comments/default/3228762869555098724'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32869165/454841412772566151/comments/default/3228762869555098724'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://freedominourtime.blogspot.com/2013/12/of-poker-and-plunder-commissarina-olson.html?showComment=1387487782305#c3228762869555098724' title=''/><author><name>LMJ</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://freedominourtime.blogspot.com/2013/12/of-poker-and-plunder-commissarina-olson.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-454841412772566151' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/32869165/posts/default/454841412772566151' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.itemClass" value="pid-936551005"/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.displayTime" value="December 19, 2013 at 2:16 PM"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-4011733231860131826</id><published>2013-12-19T01:16:07.791-07:00</published><updated>2013-12-19T01:16:07.791-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Anonymous @ 10:16 pm:&#xa;&#xa;Sure, Mr. Anderson could wa...</title><content type='html'>Anonymous @ 10:16 pm:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sure, Mr. Anderson could waste more of his money suing Santy, but do you really think he would find justice in the Idaho court system?

He solemnly moved to amend by striking from the bill all mention of Maricopa County save so much as lay in the Northeast quarter of section 34, township one north, range two east.
