No, its a RIGHT that has been taken away by the government.

No one ever said that riding a horse was a "privilege" not
a right ... saying so would have been thought ludicrous.

Exactly Doug! Exactly! As I have said, our highways were built on
our property using our money for the purpose of enhancing and
increasing the exercise of our Right of Locomotion ordinarily used for
personal travel on our public right of ways. Yet, as our public
highways are being made more and more unusable by anthing but the
automobile, the more this LIE that driving is a privielge makes us all
Prisoners of Privilege behind bars of blacktop.


Driving a car is EXACTLY like riding a horse. Except for one
big thing: a horse by itself can actively kill people. A turned
off car can't

True again Doug! In fact, horse and buggies are considerably more
dangerous than the automobile. Not only are they harder to manage and
harder to stop. Numerous people were also killed by walking behind
the wrong horse at the wrong time and having their skull kicked in.



Indeed, originally driving WAS a right, only later was that
right taken away. Same with flying an airplane ... the Wright
Brothers didn't have pilots licenses.

Again, you are quite correct. Driver Licensing was first imposed upon
the commercial use of our public highways. Nobody has a Right to the
commercial use of public highways, or right of ways. This includes
commercial Trucks, Busses or Taxis.

What were they called? Oh yea! TRAFFIC LAWS. What is Traffic?
Think it's people moving back and forth on highways? NOPE! Traffic
is any Commercial behavior. TRAFFICING in ARMS, for example. TRAFFIC
is the Commercial exchange of goods and services. When you buy a coke
in a store, you are taking part in the act of TRAFFICING. NOT when
you get in your car and go home after buying that coke.

But, we do have the Right of Locomotion ordinarily used for personal
travel on our public highways.

"Undoubtedly the right of locomotion, the right to remove from one
place to another according to inclination, is an attribute of personal
liberty, and the right, ordinarily, of free transit from or through
the territory of any state is a right secured by the 14th Amendment
and by other provisions of the Constitution." - Williams v. Fears, 179
U.S. 270 (1900) - http://laws.findlaw.com/us/179/270.html#274

"The streets belong to the public and are primarily for the use of the
public in the ordinary way." -- Packard v. Banton, 264 U.S. 140 (1924)

The number one reason for the existence of government is to
take away rights.

They claim it makes their jobs of securing our Rights easire. Strange
oxymoron they've gotten people to accept. I suppose when they've
finally stripped us of all of our Rights, the task of securing the
then non-existant Rights will be very easy. Job accomplished.

Our States are LYING to us. You know this David, as I can see, but
it's time all those wearing blinders OPEN THEIR EYES.

But, they've been brainwashed to such a degree, they often, as did
Carole Allen, react in a knee jerk fashon to only become beligerant
and begin the personal attacks.
