Well, gee whiz. Don't I feel terrible now.

Like, wow man. It really makes you think.

It makes me think about illegal search and seizure, and how I guess that only matters for special people. It makes me think that, hey, maybe some inalienable rights are actually kind of alienable, depending on who you decide to alienate, right?

They get paid money to do their jobs. Well wowee! That means they're correct in fucking people up arbitrarily right?

Special person on a blacklist? Fuck 'em up! Don't like the looks of those guys? Fuck 'em up! Hate your job and need to take it out on somebody? Fuck 'em up!

Sure, I get that. But where does the black list come from? Can I vote on who gets listed?

You know, I got some people I'd like to fuck up, myself. Would that be okay?

What if I decide to hire someone to fuck someone else up for me? I got some money to pay them. At that point, they'd be doing their job.

Hmmm. Maybe I should pick a career that let's me fuck people up, just so's I can help write those lists. It'd be my job, after all.
