Dear Yuyutsu,

Thank You so much for having gone to this much
trouble to explain your position to me. I must
admit you have given me a great deal to think
about.

I've always believed that a world without laws
would be problematic. That society could not
function because everyone would operate
according to their own desires and we would all
be open to all manner of abuse.

I thought that in our society no one is above the
law, which is, after all the creation of the
people, not something imposed on them. The
people in a democracy submit to the laws because
laws prevent or deter people from behaving
in a manner that negatively affects other people.
Laws regulate society, enforce rights and
resolve conflicts.

However, I shall think about what you've posted.

Foxy,

If you want to see a world without laws then may I recommend Mars?

You're giving me too much attention. Could you control someone else, good girl .

Yes stand up to plumbers , the clowns. "Stand-up comedy has its origin in free speech in Greece 400 BC, used to tell reality without censorship. Stand-up comedy in the United Kingdom began in the music halls of the 18th and 19th centuries. The heavy censorship regime of the Lord Chamberlain's Office required all comedians to submit their acts for censorship . The comedian was then obliged not to deviate from the act in its edited form ( or " phanto "). "

The problem is as you describe it. Or rather , the various problems have various attempts to handle them. Is designing smaller units a solution? Is part of a cup of tea cooler than the whole cup?
An early small unit was the Dutch ship Batavia where the shipwreck community had violence. The Port Jackson community also in 1788 was not nice . Humans produce sewage and maybe there's a limit to solving that as with law . We have local police and courts and councils and OLO where heads are banged on walls .

China is on the way to Mars which is a sand island in the south China space. " Serious crimes committed in space in the future will likely fall under the jurisdiction and laws of the United Nations, and be heard by the International Criminal Court (ICC), an independent, permanent court that tries persons accused of the most serious crimes of international concern, namely genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes. The ICC is based on a treaty signed by 103 countries." Of course the US in not under the ICC law and won't stand for the judge even if she is Muslim. In such cases a heart warming blast from a pair of Colt .45s at 10 paces will settle the dust .
