Yeah! But what I liked turned out NOT to be within the realm of the law. That is, not within the realm of the unwritten laws.
There are many unwritten laws that govern our society.
I have broken many of these unwritten laws because I didn't know what those laws were. Nobody knows what those unwritten law are. Not until you break one of them.
One unwritten law is that all those who don't like sports are sissies, queers, and faggots, and back in the 1960s and 1970s if you didn't like sports, you were also a Commie or at least a Comsymp, so you were categorized among the Pinkos, Commies, and queers!
Of course, you don't go to jail for breaking an unwritten law. But you do get ostracized, and beaten and bullied around, as I was.
Then after enough years of abuse, you might have an emotional and mental breakdown, and wind up in a psych-ward where you are locked up for a few weeks, get beaten some more and then raped.
Come to think of it . . . . .
Yeah, one does eventually go to a prison of sorts for breaking unwritten laws.
It just takes several years of being put on trial in a kangaroo court of prejudicial opinions, that kangaroo court being our schools. Just by going to school, you're on trial for breaking unknown unwritten laws.
The jocks are the sports enforcers who police the schools just looking for nerds and geeks and nonathletic students to harass.
And the entire country is under the jurisdiction of the sports enforcers. Residential areas get torn down to make room for new sports arenas, and the people who are removed from their homes are paid less than the initial value of their homes, as in the case of Dallas Texas.

In Dallas, the old Texas Stadium is being done away with and another, obscenely large stadium is being built in Arlington. The local news made very little fuss about it, but this new stadium was put down via Eminent Domain. The thing is, there were so many locations they could have built this obscenity, but nooooo, it had to be built next to Six Flags over Texas, next to the frigging Ballpark in Arlington (Home of the Texas loser Rangers), and to add another kick to the crotch, Eminent Domain was invoked and ousted many, many people from their homes for far less than their homes were worth.
magine toiling and slaving away for the place you call home. You may have slaved away for it for 15 years, making it what it is today. You love your neighborhood, school system, public facilities, etc. You grind away more years building a family. Planting a life. Heck, you may even be one of the few fortunates wealthy enough to afford a swimming pool, and you just had it put in last year.
Then one day out of the blue, you receive a condemnation notice. Just think about that for a minute. Who wouldn't be just a tad bit pissed? But to add insult to injury, you find out that your home is going to meet the business end of a bulldozer to make way for a structure that is NOT public. (The term 'public' refers to a structure that contains free access to anyone who wishes to enter it.)
This SPORTS stadium is a private structure. It was built with private dollars. And your home...your castle...is being torn down not even for stadium square footage, but for extra PARKING LOT SPACE.
So, the good ol' USA is under a Fascist Sports Dictatorship!
And my hometown of El Paso Texas is under a sports dictatorship.
The Don Haskins SPORTS CENTER which is our local Nazi Headquarters had requested to Sun Metro that the two bus stop benches in front of their building be removed, which meant that people who were elderly or disabled would have to stand to wait for a bus.
I had to bitch and gripe with Sun Metro and the Don Haskins Sports Center for seven weeks before they finally installed two brand new bus stop benches.
So, we all have to obey the unwritten laws or suffer the consequences.
The problem is . . . . . nobody knows what the unwritten laws are until you break one of them.
But in the meantime, Jocks don't have to obey the written laws on the statute books. They get to park their $100,000 dollar Hummers all day long in 15 minute parking zones and NEVER have to worry about getting a ticket or having their vehicles towed away.
And jocks can even rape our women and get away with it!
I rest my case!!!
NEXT CASE!!!
