At what exact point, then should one resist? When one's belt is taken away? When one is ordered to face into a corner? When one crosses the threshold of one's home? An arrest consists of a series of incidental irrelevancies, of a multitude of things that do not matter, and there seems no point in arguing about any one of them individually--especially at a time when the thoughts of the person arrested are wrapped tightly iabout the big question: "What for?" --and yet all these incidental irrelevancies taken together implacably constitute the arrest.

This is exactly what is happening in western society, except with thought/language control. Scary.
