the question is not ridiculous
its pertinent and it reveals the value of the founders versus the complacency and big talk / no-do dissenters of today
in a word: balls
if I truly believed the government was excessively diminishing my freedom or way of life, I'd start by organizing and gathering enough of the willing and use my voice first and foremost as loud as humanly possible
OK....go ahead. Or don't. Completely irrelevant.
I don't feel I'm living in tyranny.
But I'm sure there's enough Libertarians in the Country to where if they had any balls, they'd actually stand up for what they think.
There's the crux of being a libertarian. They think that everyone else wants to be a slave to the Government, yet - - - - - they're the ones who THINK that they're slaves to the government yet don't do anything. The others don't think they're under tyranny. The onus of "wanting to be a slave" is on the people who actually think they are, yet do nothing.

Libertarianism means one adheres to the NAP. That violence is a recourse after all other options have been exhausted. The others can think what they like. And i'll act as I wish as well. That you THINK you have the authority to make judgments about how individuals, or like minded individuals react to such things is telling.
You can go ahead and do as you wish. if you feel comfortable and all happy with being a serf to the State, then that's your prerogative. I can try to change your mind, or someone else, but ultimately it's your belief. I could show you exactly how you're being subjected, but i'm certain a level of cognitive dissonance will come into play. It doesn't really matter to me what you think, how you feel or what you do. So long as you're not demanding anythign from me or infringing on my natural rights.
