Yesterday, Mrs. SSS and I went to see The Good Lie with Reese Witherspoon, a well made, touching movie about a group of Sudanese refugees who came to the U.S. in the early 2000s. I have to say that while we were watching it, I was thinking of Spock and how he would have reacted to the movie. After all, it's about our misguided immigration policies that allow people who have been waiting in refugee camps for years into this country so they can get jobs and support themselves and eventually become citizens (and vote Democratic) instead of staying in Africa where hunters like Spock might occasionally throw them a kudu carcass or two.
The movie was fictional. The events depicted were not.

..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.

War is where the government tells you who the bad guy is.
Revolution is when you decide that for yourself.
