A vigilante is someone who usurps ot assumes power or authority from where it rightfully
exists.
Other way around. Vigilantes arise when there is no authority, or when authority is corrupt and part of the problem.
The ultimate responsibility for protection lies with the community. As circumstances warrant, they may establish a police force to do this, or if police are powerless, do whatever is necessary themselves.
It is seemingly forgotten that governments, and the services they provide, are established by communies to serve those communities.
People who take advantage of lawless conditions can expect no protection from those they harm.
In the early days of television, poor people couldn't afford TVs either. The manufacturers of TVs aimed at the affluent layer of society.
I well remember the local Dr.'s son had many friends Saturday mornings, when all the kids wanted to watch Howdy Doody.
Then came "Madman Muntz" who hawked inexpensive Tvs to the masses. Crappy TVs, but affordable. The leading manufacturers followed with lower prices, and everyone who really wanted a TV had one.
Something similar will happen with HD TV units. Look what happened with computers. However, Michael Dell is not as entertaining as Madman Muntz.
Dresden is in the former East Germany, an economically backward part of reunited Germany. Companies that locate in this area have been given incentives by the German Government to expedite development and job creation.
WebTv has its own alt.discuss news groups. The associations formed by WebTv users in them are very intense.
One extremely egotistical type generated a great deal of dislike, if not outright hate. Jeansonne was part of this individual's clique. The actual "exploit" is very simple to do and well known. Jeansonne was just the first person to combine the requisite amount of vindictiveness and stupidity to actually do this.
Almost all WebTv users have html signitures that rival web pages in their complexity. A simple

Having the police arrived unexpectedly at their door was very unsettling for the mostly female recipients of the email. Some were accused of making the calls on their own and threatened with arrest for missusing the 911 system.

When I was a lad I served a term
As office boy to an attorney's firm
I cleaned the windows and I swept the floor
And I polished up the handle of the big front door
I polished up that handle so carefully
That now I am the Ruler of the Queen's Navy
As office boy I made such a mark
That they gave me the post of a junior clerk
I served the writs with a smile so bland
And I copied all the letters in a big round hand
I copied all the letters in a hand so free
That now I am the Ruler of the Queen's Navy
For the last century, the title of "most important place in the world" has belonged to the United States, but that role seems likely to shift in this century to China
This makes the assumption that the status quo is unchanging. China is an amalgam that has been held together by force rather than by desire. Like the former Soviet Empire, Communist Yugoslavia, British India, et. al., the Chinese "nation" will disintegrate into smaller parts once a central government becomes unable to control the provinces by brute force. I doubt if a break-up would be amiable.
with advertising campaigns encouraging the underclass have abortions. I'll *pay* the mother to abort, and pay again to have her tubes tied.
This was the original basis for modern anti-abortion agitation. Not that killing a fetus was immoral, but that white middle and upper class families were having fewer children.
This meant that more children were born to newly arrived groups such as Italian, Irish, Eastern Europeans, etc. and the country would lose its Anglosaxon heritage to "unworthy" peoples.
And yes, if blacks and hispanics were the majority users of abortion, the bible thumpers would be screaming for the government to provide abortions for free.
Prior to Roe v. Wade this was the case. The wealthy have always had access to safe abortions, either in the US or overseas.
Lesser members of the human race had coathanger abortions in alleys, or just had kids. All Roe v. Wade really did was to allow poorer people the same access to abortion as the wealthy.
