Court Officials Who Jailed a Veteran for Living Off-Grid Were “Just Doing Their Jobs”

    The fundamental right to property is a pipe dream, and we are complicit in our own undoing. "Just doing my job" is Stockholm Syndrome. We saw it in action.

    Nothing is free in this country anymore. If you think you own a home or anything else, you only own it until the government decide they want it. More power to this man and I hope folks will raise hell about this any where they can.
