| #6 Well I don't know about that. I haven't seen many 60 somethings rioting and professing anarchy. I think that in the Hobbesian anarchist world most of the anarchists I have seen would do ok for a few years. And they would certainly not need to kowtow to those who were old or rich. Looking forward to a life within the rules without the possibility of success, certainly could make anarchy seem a rational choice. |

| #5 As OldSpook said, I don't think anarchists have thought it through. If there were no State, there would be nothing to prevent people from hunting down anarchists and anyone else they didn't like. It would truly be survival of the fittest. As Hobbes said, without a state or some kind of rules in society, life would be poor, nasty, brutish and short. I realize that many states are oppressive. However, the answer is not anarchy. |

| #4 "We are wild lovers of freedom, and will never renounce the revolution or the complete destruction of the state and its violence." They're going to substitute their own brand of violence for that of the state. At least they admit it. |

| #3 You know, I'd think that if the company wanted to...get a little payback, they could always hire the italian mafia. Mafia vs Greenies....I'd pay to watch. |

| #1 Anarchist and green. Idiots - the first against the wall when they achieve the anarchy the want will be them. Anarchy leads to Dictatorship and mass murder as "order" is imposed at the desire of the poeple. History teaches that quite clearly, from ancient times, all the way to Lenin, Mussolini, Hitler, Mao and Pol Pot. |
