QOTD: "[N]on-compliance is an insult to [the progressives'] intellect and their authority.

It's a big part of why they hate guns. When you are armed you are intruding on the state's monopoly on violence by reserving to yourself your own self-governance and police power. It's why so many on the left loathe the tax-exempt status for churches. It's why they hate homeschooling. When you homeschool you are opting out of the state's efforts at imposing its preferred worldview on your children. It's why Chik-fil-A has to be singled out, why religious institutions have to pay for birth control, why the Race for the Cure had to keep giving to Planned Parenthood. It's why federalism is anathema to liberals and why I keep saying that "rightwing" is simply one of the Left's preferred terms for "non-compliant."" --Jonah Goldberg
