Imagine you started a family on a piece of land of which you have a valid title deed to. You got there and nobody else was there - no prior title deeds/valid claimants existed. So, you get to work. You setup chicken wire around a portion of it for a coup. Maybe grow a vegetable patch; up to you. You then placed a little fence around it indicating where your property begins and ends.

It's all very physical, easy to determine and to prove.

Now imagine, that somebody comes and destroys it, bombs it, brings armed thugs to move you out of it. All whilst you had a valid claim to that particular plot of land (nothing more and nothing less than this fenced-off area).

It's incredibly disturbing to see daily the ways people will justify the destruction of private property (and very well the lives of those living in said property at the time of its destruction). Some will dream up nationalistic tripe about "our land", some will claim "but b...ut but we paid them market value" (whilst they hold an effective gun to your head - coercing you to sell it off), some will say "we'll move them to better housing" (after bulldozing their house).

Liberty doesn't have a skin color preference. Private property is an inherent right to all, doesn't matter where in the world you are and what religion you follow, race or sex. Once you understand this pillar of peaceful coexistence you will see the so-called rulers for what they are - envious heathens; but take a look at yourself too - and make sure you are not becoming one.
