# William Forbes Oh, you mean the government that murdered and robbed...

*March 8, 2025 — Comment Archer T. Ships replied to William Forbes's comment.*

William Forbes Oh, you mean the government that murdered and robbed the previous inhabitants of the land 200 years ago?    Do you think that if a mafia claims ownership of all the land around them, and threatens to beat/cage/kill everyone who doesn't bow before them, that gives them moral claim to the land?  At best, it's a claim based on "might makes right".
