Abolitionist and the Underground Railroad were legislators? I did not know that. I just thought they were citizen law breakers not obeying the law of the land. So the Underground Railroad was created democratically? There was a vote? My public schooling failed me again. I didn't know the underground railroad was actually a group of legislators.

Cissy is playing 'the Dunce' again. Who passed the laws outlawing slavery? The legislators just dreamed up the idea all by themselves??? And passed these laws against the will of the people???

So breaking the law, disregarding the law, or nullifying law to change the law is patriotic? I agree.

Cissy is looking for a 'president' not to pay his taxes.
Even though he thinks of himself otherwise... Cissy is a 'Classic Conservative'! The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

The left laugh at libertarians yet they vote for people who go against their liberal beliefs, I thought liberals were anti-war yet they voted for Obama and will soon cast their vote for the war hawk Hillary. The left has nothing to stand on, when they actually start electing people on principles instead of party then I might take them seriously, until then I will just continue to laugh at the hypocrites
"In the beginning of a change, the Patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a Patriot."

The LIBERTARIANS laugh at The LEFT yet they vote for people who go against their LIBERTARIAN beliefs, I thought LIBERTARIANS were anti-war yet they voted for RANDY PAUL, "A PRO BOMBING LIBERTARIAN!"

Last year: Rand Paul warned that bombing Syria would create a “jihadist wonderland.” This year? “This is an intervention, and I don’t always support intervention— but this one I support.”

You dodged the question. Is breaking the law, disregarding the law, and nullifying the law a patriotic act? Or only when it fits your cause?

OHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I DODGED THE QUESTION!!! Cissy playing his DUNCE ACT is fine, pretending he doesn't understand the facts of the issue. But when I DODGE THE QUESTION, that's different. What's good for the goose, is good for the dunce gander.

Civil disobedience has always been an option to help effect change. Civil rights, democracy, wars, etc. Abolition is no different. But of course Cissy already knew that when he posted his "dodged the question" farce.

Ok, you answered. That all I wanted to know. Law breaking is merely civil disobedience when you support the law breaking. Civil disobedience when you do not support the cause, is a crime.

Correct, working hard to keep America free. Free from all your socialist nanny state BS.
YEA! Who needs those 'socialist nanny state' things like: ~Public Schools~ Education should only be for the rich who can afford schools for their kids. ~Libraries and Parks~ Only freeloaders use Libraries and Parks. Privatize them so you have to pay for them. ~Labor Rights~ Who says a working man or woman has any rights? Screw em. ~Freeways~ Make em pay pay pay! ~Anti Discrimination Laws~ If you're unlucky enough to be born a minority, a woman or poor... screw you! ~Food Inspection~ Right. Why should we pay extra for safe food. ~Environmental Regulations~ It's MY earth so I will use it as I please! ~Product safety~ If people are dumb enough to buy dangerous products, why blame the manufacturer.
Pretty much Libertarians have the same view... "I GOT MINE, SCREW YOU!"
