“Beyond mere non-compliance, there is defiance. Defiance is more ‘in your face’ than non-compliance, and is more dangerous, but you can be smart about it. Practice non-compliance until you get comfortable dipping into defiance. Storming a government building only works if there’s a big enough crowd, and they don’t simply go home to be hunted down later. It’s the same with refusing to be taxed, refusing to have illegal gun rules imposed on you, and rejecting all licenses and permits. There’s safety in numbers. … There’s a tipping point at which defiance is less dangerous because of the number of people participating. It’s not here yet. Until then, you can at least work toward reaching that tipping point.” (04/17/26)
