WE TURN TO VIOLENCE
—“Liberty is not an inherent right, it is a prestigious responsibility – some are not capable of handling or even desiring living in a country where freedom is the answer. When liberty is not the answer, where else shall we turn?”— Wayne Lawrence

People would be surprised at how dangerous many of our advocates are. Nice, smart, handsome, fit, normal men. No problem ‘doing what’s necessary’.

I suppose that it never occurs to ‘liberals’ that the cost of not conquering, enslaving, or killing them is one we pay every day.

CLEARING THE MARKET FOR CONFLICT WITH VIOLENCE
One of Eli Harman’s most important contributions to Propertarianism is the insight that violence functions as a market clearing mechanism for disputes, just as cooperation forms a market clearing mechanism for agreements.
–“Violence is the means of expressing the subjective evaluations not captured by price signals, which are as vast and varied as those which are.”—Eli Harman
Define “Market Clearing?”
The application of a concept from economics to cooperation proper:
“That which restores disequilibrium to equilibrium.”
In economics we state a market has been cleared when supply=demand: meaning no ‘problem’ exists for the market to calculate.
You can solve political problems by agreement or physical conflict. They are all solvable. You can clear the market for cooperation or the market for conflict. Both markets are clearable.

No one can fight in the sheriffs, militia, military, for you. Fighting is a non-substitutable good. If for no other reason than you cannot perform restitution for losses incurred. Compensation perhaps. But never restitution. If you cannot perform restitution then the good is not substitutable.

—“In the Second World War, Imperial Japan dropped thousands of plague-infested fleas on Chinese cities.
Developed at its covert “Unit 731” biological and chemical warfare facility, these attacks are believed to have killed around 400,000 civilians.
…
There are antibiotics available to counter the disease, but they are ineffective if not administered within a day of the onset of symptoms. With most doctors having little experience of the disease, it is unlikely it would be identified before it’s too late.
And given the symptoms are easily mistaken for that of a common flu, he said it was imperative a vaccine is developed.
The window for antibiotic treatment is very narrow, so it is usually between 20 – 24 hours after the appearance of the symptoms of the disease. If you delay the treatment then you will still see people dying.
A HISTORY OF PLAGUE AS A BIOLOGICAL WEAPON
Given the virality of the plague, history is littered with instances of it being used as a biological weapon.
Historical accounts from the far east describe it being used by the Mongols, Huns and rampaging Chinese armies to infect adversaries.This involved catapulting infected animals or corpses of plague victims into besieged cities, or dumping them into water supplies to infect enemies’ drinking water.
During the Second World War, Imperial Japan pioneered warheads filled with disease-ridden rats, mice, clothing and fleas which it dropped on Chinese civilians.The disease had been developed at the so-called “Unit 731” facility in northeast China, which was the site of some of Japan’s most horrendous war crimes. An estimated 250,000 people were subjected to experimentation at the site.
Following the war, both the US and Russia harnessed the technology – much of which was based on Japanese and German research – to use plague as a weapon.Studies have since revealed the USSR focused on developing “aerosolized” forms of the disease – thereby removing the need for it to be transmitted via infected fleas or animals.And despite being a signatory to a convention banning the development of such weapons, Russia was found to still be creating the weapons as late as the 1990s when former USSR microbiologist Ken Alibek defected to the US.
The plague is physically transmitted, just like Ebola, so therefore simple quarantine measures are effective. If this scenario was to actually work, then we would have seen epidemic level plaque outbreaks after the dark ages when we learned it was spread by microbe infected rats and fleas. There have not been any of that type of outbreak that wasn’t quickly quarantined.

PROPOSED FINAL DEFINITION OF NATURAL LAW The One Law of Reciprocity. (Natural Law) Thou shalt not, by word, deed, absence of word or deed, impose or allow the the imposition of, costs upon the demonstrated interests of others (property-in-toto), either directly or indirectly, where those interests were obtained by settlement (conversion, or first use) or productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary exchange without such imposition of costs upon the demonstrated interests of others. Therefore thou shalt limit thy words and deeds, and the words and deeds of others, to the productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary exchange of interests (property in toto), free of imposition of costs upon the demonstrated interests of others either directly or indirectly.
The LEFT justifies and glamorizes anti-social violence (outcasts, dysfunctional, criminals, rebels, political deception). Meanwhile, the RIGHT justifies and glamorizes pro-social violence (war, police, sheriffs, heroism).
The Anti-social Left, the Pro-Social Right.

Joel Davis: —“By violence we may test our will against reality. By triumph we may manifest our will in reality. And we can argue about what is and what isn’t until we are blue in the face… Ultimately the test of whether your ideas can transform into reality will be whether you succeed or fail in overcoming that which resists it’s manifestation.”—

Moritz Bierling: —“As Ely Harman has pointed out, violence is the “clearing” (or mechanism of validation) of negative values (limits). It is the most immediate and because it comes out of the most primal part of our brain, the reptilian brain, it has the highest and most honest information content of any action, and method of coercion. Which is also why the left tries so very hard to take away our instincts, our ability and willingness to act on information coming from organs other than the “rational” (justificationary) brain, and all means of interpersonal coordination not centrally controllable (ie. religion, myth, heroic acts, patriotism, national identity, etc).”—
