Who are they referring to? The federal government isn't an entity unto itself that acts on its own impulses without the influence and actions of humans, so who the hell are you monkeys referring to? When you say the federal "government" takes away, invades, and intrudes, who exactly and specifically is taking away, invading and intruding, is it something tangible or it your rabid, rightwing imagination running wild?

Yawn.

Nothing else needs to be discussed if you don't respect personal property.

As Ronald Reagan said, the nine scariest words in the English language are, Im from the government and Im here to help. An important new book, just out from the National Center for Public Policy Research, shows how on the mark the Gipper was. Shattered Dreams: One Hundred Stories of Government Abuse gives a hundred reasons why government left unchecked can harm even innocent, law-abiding citizens.

how about if you don't respect someone's right to control their own body?

Yeah and then if an airport gets blown up the rightwingers will be saying the "government failed," damned if the government does something, damned if they don't, you can always blame the government for anything.

What's proved frustrating for Bartol's attorney, Scott LaFranchi, is the broad nature of the law under which she is being prosecuted. RCW 77.55.00 states that "any work that will use, divert, obstruct, or change the natural flow" of a stream requires approval from the state.
Under that rule, LaFranchi said, you can't put your foot in the water.
"I understand why the law exists," LaFranchi said. "But is that the intent of the law? To go after people like Gwen for removing trash, tires and a washing machine from a creek.
"The fact that jail time is even on the table seems extreme to me," he said.
Bartol has spent thousands of dollars, first trying to do what the state wanted her to do, and more recently fighting prosecution.
In that time, the stress of the situation led to her divorce.
"It was just too much," Bartol said. She visibly shakes when talking about her frustration with all that has transpired.
Bartol said she didn't know she was doing anything illegal when she cleared blackberry bushes along her property line to remove garbage that motorists had discarded over the years.
Bartol also said she had no clue that removing old tires, a washing machine and other trash from Soos Creek, or placing boulders around a man-made creek diversion, were violations of a state law aimed at protecting salmon-bearing streams.
Bartol disputes the state's claim that she removed several trees and salmon berry bushes that provided shade and erosion control for Soos Creek.
"I'm not doing anything different I haven't done for 22 years," she said.
But all of these activities require permits, Altaras said. "(The state) doesn't discourage people from pulling garbage from streams, but they prefer you get a permit.
"The point of the legislation is to protect fish and there are a lot of salmon in the stream that goes through her property," she said.
I get the OP's original point. Conservatives have turned the federal government into some hulking, amorphous beast that they are separate from. While it can be said that the government has grown out of control, part of what I think the OP was trying to bring to light was...it's all of our own faults in some ways that this has happened. If only for lack of political involvement ...or not holiding the politicians we voted for to their promises.
It DOES feel like a load of warm horse piss for anyone at all to claim their superiority to the government when it's been a creation of the people (i.e. themselves) all along. Conservatives (and Dems) are no better than the government they complain about...until they DO something about it.

The Drug War's Collateral Damage
Drug prohibition militarizes our police, enriches our enemies, undermines our laws, and condemns our sick to suffering.
This is easily one of the stupidest fucking posts in human history. If some future archaeologist finds it they must conclude that we were a race of clueless fucking morons.
You're mad because you make accusations against a perpetrator you can't even specifically point out except in vague nonspecific terms, so who's the stupid one, the one who can't answer or the one who asked the question you can't answer? Can you answer the question or present more questionable answers that are nonspecific answers?
Libs haven't met a life yet they wouldn't mind taking if it benefited them financially. Abortion, end of life counseling.. it's all about money.

Who the hell are you calling "monkeys"? If I called you that, you'd be calling me a racist.
When I use the word "government" I'm talking about the GOVERNMENT. It isn't code.

A Lone Humorist Attempts to Explain the Entire U.S. Government

THE MYSTERY OF GOVERNMENT
Good laws derive from evil habits.
Macrobius
What is this oozing behemoth, this fibrous tumor, this monster of power and expense hatched from the simple human desire for civic order? How did an allegedly free people spawn a vast, rampant cuttlefish of dominion with its tentacles in every orifice of the body politic?
