Help Me Understand This...
In one community recently, the local authorities were all puffed up over a family having a purple jungle set in their back yard and some of the locals didn't agree with the aesthetic. (Apparently the little girls for whom the swing set was erected liked purple. Go figure.). The authorities were promising fines, etc. if the family didn't take it down.
Fast forward to today in Orlando, Florida. It seems a local there has his own reality TV show. He also has lethal reptiles in his home. Well darn the luck, one got out the other day. Sadly, he forgot to mention it to anyone like, oh say, the cops for several days. Turns out the escapee is an EIGHT FOOT KING COBRA, which can grow to 14 feet. Further, said snake owner opined the the beast probably went into a local wooded area and most likely we'll never be found. Not to worry though...he probably won't bite anyone.
Is this a great country or what??!?!

fy as a member of an endangered species, mightn't
it? And besides, man must learn to live in accord
with nature, mustn't he? So what if a few human
beings get killed?--As to the purple jungle swing
set in the backyard on private property, anybody
knows, doesn't he, that anything on private
property that defends the aesthetics of one's
neighbors is an unthinkable atrocity?!
Well stated,indeed.
P.S. Add these to your list: Lois Lerner called us a seven letter word that starts with "A", McCain called us crazies, and Hillary compared us to terrorists.
This name calling is supposed to intimidate us into shutting up.
The rest went into her retirement account. We are thinking of buying one down south of the border and she's looking at an RV the same way I looked at a boat.
Legal satisfaction was through the military education center testing program. Later it was the external degree programs in three states.
One day I received a Bachelors in the mail. Another day a second Bachelors. Some years later and a bit more difficult one step up.
Useful but not enough to produce an income equal to what I made in the blue color skilled trades. I just through that in to explain my sometimes spelling and somewhat eclectic interests.
Anarchists are the extremists of the right. By definition of zero government they are loners.Anything above that would constitute the start of a government.
The left or the opposite extremists are the Nazis, the Communists, the skin heads, and so forth at the extremes of the left which are any group proposing, actively carrying out or supporting government control of the citizens.
Fascist simply means complete government control of everything using any and all means available. The government you are referring to is right smack dab in the middle usually calling for citizen control through rights and responsibilities with some limited government. One part of which is usually law enforcement and the other is military defense. They may stretch from the center but always are attached to and support the center and NEVER violate the basic tenets, beliefs, and rights as set forth by the citizens.
For us the best description of the center was the Constitution. The right or near right probably Libertarians and a few others just to use the direction. The left of course starts, for us, with a coalition of two plus parties the Republicans, the Democrats and a few odds and ends Independents. All of which believe in government control of citizens and most by virtue of their recent actions versus their rhetoric believing in complete control of the citizens. The only connection the Republicans have with the right is they are the right wing of the left. .
So....if the individual(s) coming for your property are the government to whom do you turn? And having found the answer please share it the job is completely open.

"No Senor it means naked or nude.It's a local term.What you are thinking of is perra in the polite sense and bruja for wha tyou of thinking. That of course is the feminine gender version of perro or dog. The burger itself is one piece of very high grade ground round with nothing else on the platter ergo naked.
So Bichi or Bici burger but beware there is also bicha a snake, biche green and bicho a wierd sort of odd ball all pronounced the same.
Which brings us back to doing something au natural or in proper Spanish desnudo. That wasn't in the dictionary but nudo was and it means (k)not. No relation but one must be careful. Some perfectly harmless words aren't A saying is if you like the mother you will love the daughter. but the local phrase is gusta la vaca amo la becerra. cow and calf. You may say that and refer to the daughter as a calf but you may not refer to the mother as a vaca or cow. that would mean very very wide to be polite. That word is gordo or grueso but gross is grocera not meaning 144 unless it's kilos while the store for food is groceria.
The moral of the story is have a two language dictionary in the hand that doesn't have the cold beer and mind the brizna de pasco y su dedos. Blades of grass for your fingers (also means toes) especially if you are grocera sin ropa and mowing the lawn. Ropa is clothes. Helping at the dock don't say throw me su ropa ask for a soga which can also ve used to make fun of your Spanish or warn you of being in dire straits
Ask the why the prefer Spanish they will tell you English is too difficult.
When you go to the next state or region it will all change. they do that to get a good laugh.
the final caution for safe nude lawn mowing is the slang for a certain other appendage is pistol. i let you guess the rest.
Save me a beer.
