If you want to be a slave, that's your right.  But leave me out of your 
schemes, please.  May I ask you to remove the guns and violence your 
"representatives" are threatening me with if I refuse to "participate"? 
Because I don't think it's possible to have a civilized discussion when 
one party insists on forcing the other to obey.

By the way, it takes a really twisted mindset to consider violence 
towards people who didn't do anything bad to you as socially acceptable.
