RE: My thoughts on Anarchy - Heroes and Mobsters
Vigilantes who bully bullies aren't aggressing, they're acting in defense of the innocent.
Mafia standover men are indistinguishable from state actors, in that they provide or offer no service except their absence, at a price (and the absence of competing gangs)
At least with the mob, you pay the money and actually get left alone.
Voluntaryism isn't an aversion to rules, it's the realisation that rules are best discerned by property owners, not strangers thousands of miles away with no knowledge of the place, who have invested nothing in it.
The problem is to determine a bully. Not everyone who cries help is in the right and at least in the way I read it Voluntaryism advocates to only protect yourself, your property and people close around you. A hero often saves the whole world though.
I am actually in favor of strong local and less global government, but people like the American Reps love to warp the term "small gov" into "weak gov". Btw how does voluntarism prevent that the owner is thousands of miles away and the place is just a number on a piece of paper for him?
If it's important to him, he will have made it clear that it's his (signage, fencing etc), and made provision to have any trespass investigated, and the perpetrators identified and held to account.
Like what people think the police are for.
