However, the standard was: > No organization (government or otherwise) should be large enough or powerful enough to infringe on anyone's liberties No organization should be big enough to trample on anyone's rights. You said that's an easy standard to meet. Seems downright impossible to me. > a half dozen or so people could probably take care of the one or two problematic people Cool, vigilante justice.
