the status of private property arguments as over against the rights to political protest IS the issue.
my personal attitude toward private property is not.
what you're ducking is the actual argument that i'm making, ace. you duck it by trying to avoid the position property relations have in this argument. my contention is that they are functions of the legal system, which is an extension of the political system. political protest is directed against the political system itself. so it follows that property relations, which are internal to that system, cannot be used to limit protest directed against the system itself.
