government, if not with the liberal media. An
example, Linda. At one point in time, the
federal government was turning loose murderers,
rapists, and armed robbers, and sending agents out
to arrest people who owned home-satellite systems
capable of picking up signals from the
public
airways.
"Stupid? Sure, it was. But that didn't stop the
government from doing it. Our government was spending
millions of dollars enforcing the dumbest of laws
while children were being beaten to death by abusive

destroyed by humankind, and very few of us even
gave a damn. And those of us that did were told to shut
up.
"When the Great War came, Linda, some of us
seized the moment to break away, form our own
society, and rebuild. And we did. I got
back in shape and vowed I was going to put together an
army and
kick the ass of every punk and thug and crud we found.
So that's why we keep fighting, Linda. That's why
