... Speed limits are laws that are set up by well-paid lies?

By whom? That all-too-powerful "Let's drive slow" lobby?

I'm with you on the "When the law hurts the very people it's meant to protect, it's the right and responsibility of the people to fight against it" angle...

But speed limits? That is your line in the sand?
