"In this [Stand Your Ground] regime, a sidewalk can become a war - TopicsExpress



          

"In this [Stand Your Ground] regime, a sidewalk can become a war zone, and every “upstanding citizen” can exercise the sovereign power of war. If the category of totalitarianism has any meaning, surely we must call this regime much more totalitarian than, for example, East Germany. There the “totalitarian” power was recognized (and at the end of the day recognized itself) as a heteronomous imposition — here there is a seamless identification. Citizens don’t have to be recruited, but actively recruit themselves to be the police in all its forms, including the riot police and the secret police."
