Well, it's possible I might have been a legitimate threat to his safety at the time. One can never tell.

I saw this video in revleft.com (morons), one of them said “if a republic is the rule of law as opposed to the rule of the mob, then who makes the laws?”…. I think thats a misconception, the republic’s constitution is the higher law of the country that guaranties respect for the property and rights of all their citizens and according to that principles all the other laws are created by representatives elected by the people who also must respect and honor the constitution.

Although it focuses on the political issues rather than economic differences of totalitarian governments it is undeniable that all of them opposed political and economic freedom.
