"If you think the Govt or its affiliates have the power kill people, then yes, then yes, I should fear for my life. However - I don't give it a lot of thought because there is great joy in fighting. It's also not in the interest of the power structure to potentially turn someone into a martyr. It's more likely they will use the legal system to issue injunctions . Or ban me on Facebook, Youtube or Twitter. . I'm also a Christian. So I believe it's important to fight for things greater than one's personal physical welfare."
