Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Sarah Brady Paradise...

Farmer menaced with death threats by gang of travellers dials 999... and police turn up to confiscate her shotguns [More]
Well, as I've been chastised by a subject who approves of that state of affairs:
Liberty is not wielding a weapon that could inflict harm on another. Liberty is freedom from a society in which such instruments of death abound.

Regarding the people who chastised, you have to remember, to them, Liberty is Freedom from actually having to think for oneself, standup from oneself, heck, to actually do, or be responsible, in anyway, shape, or form, for oneself.

The mistake was calling 999. Farmer=Land=Tractor=Hole. Done.
Seems pretty simple to me.

The police in the UK have much more dangerous criminals to take care of.

Police arrested a singer on racism charges after a man reportedly of Chinese descent complained about his performance of the song "Kung Fu Fighting," according to reports.

Someone needs to educate the poor British subject/slave about liberty. Liberty, as I define it, is the freedom to exercise your rights.

Indeed, the victim of the state here is at least partially responsible for her own predicament.

She called the government into play, that's a big mistake here in the USA, much less in that fascist state, Great Britain.

Liberty is armed government oppression of liberty?
The Orwellian has become the norm over there.
