Viewed in this context, it is a treasonous act rather than merely a series of petty crimes by those who openly profess to be at war with the state, society, civilization itself while promising to ignore\/reject all laws and denying the existence of all &#8216;rights&#8217;. Many of the more senior members of this men@ge are college professors, or other professionals holding privileged positions receiving handsome State salaries and possibly never worked a day&#8217;s hard labor in their lives. Their acolytes typically consist of lifestyle (A)narchists (spoiled rich kids) who in turn manipulate the homeless, the most desperately poor, and the mentally defective living on (or not) the street to do their dirty work. They post their exploits (&#8216;reports&#8217;) on internet sites given to their &#8217;cause&#8217; in an effort to inspire others to follow suit. The more anger\/fear they inspire in government officials and the population, the more satisfied they become. This is why innocent citizens may return to find the windows of their vehicles smashed, their tires slashed, their churches vandalized, their police officers threatened\/harassed, and those Constitutional principles Americans have come to expect trashed.<\/p>\n<p>A\u00a0<i><b>chevauch\u00e9e<\/b><\/i>\u00a0(<small>French pronunciation:\u00a0\u200b<\/small><a title=\"Help:IPA for French\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Help:IPA_for_French\">[\u0283\u0259vo\u0283e]<\/a>, &#8220;promenade&#8221; or &#8220;horse charge&#8221;, depending on context) was a\u00a0<a title=\"Raid (military)\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Raid_(military)\">raiding<\/a>\u00a0method of\u00a0<a title=\"Medieval warfare\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Medieval_warfare\">medieval warfare<\/a>\u00a0for weakening the enemy, focusing mainly on wreaking havoc,\u00a0<a title=\"Early thermal weapons\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Early_thermal_weapons\">burning<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a title=\"Pillaging\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pillaging\">pillaging<\/a>\u00a0enemy territory, in order to reduce the productivity of a region; as opposed to siege warfare or wars of conquest.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0<i>chevauch\u00e9e<\/i>\u00a0could be used as a way of forcing an enemy to fight, or as a means of discrediting the enemy&#8217;s government and detaching his subjects from their loyalty.
