Quoted form the link you provided..
The paranoid spokesman sees the fate of conspiracy in apocalyptic terms â?? he traffics in the birth and death of whole worlds, whole political orders, whole systems of human values. He is always manning the barricades of civilization... he does not see social conflict as something to be mediated and compromised, in the manner of the working politician. Since what is at stake is always a conflict between absolute good and absolute evil, what is necessary is not compromise but the will to fight things out to a finish. Since the enemy is thought of as being totally evil and totally unappeasable, he must be totally eliminated â?? if not from the world, at least from the theatre of operations to which the paranoid directs his attention. This demand for total triumph leads to the formulation of hopelessly unrealistic goals, and since these goals are not even remotely attainable, failure constantly heightens the paranoidâ??s sense of frustration. Even partial success leaves him with the same feeling of powerlessness with which he began, and this in turn only strengthens his awareness of the vast and terrifying quality of the enemy he opposes.
So you're trying to say we're a bunch of conspiracy nuts?? LOL
So it's unrealistic to think the feds could come in and bust any center anytime the want to?
I suppose in your eyes it is also unrealistic to think all these new laws have NOTHING to do with taxes? Even given all the recent proof you still can't shake off those blinders.
Unrealistic goals- Hmm, you may be right, I guess it is unrealistic to expect or government officials to follow the constitution. God knows they don't give a rats ass about that silly little piece of paper.
