Love the paleo and 21 convention stuff but clearly have very little understanding of who Thomas Jefferson was all about. Cut the libertarian bull-shite.

This is a common comment for me to receive. It essentially says “I agree with and believe you are right on a staggeringly wide array of topics … with the exception of politics.”

What’s most tragic about this comment (besides the fact that I am NOT a libertarian) is that people aren’t more curious about their, usually very passionate, disagreement with me on this single specific topic. People just bury their heads in the sand on it, in spite of the fact that I have been at the spearhead of what amounts to one of the best comprehensive resources of knowledge in the world.

It’s as if viewers and readers go down a check list of topics that I spread information about, and rank what they find.

It’s an enormous anomaly staring people in the face, that they write off as insignificant or a fluke.

REALLY?

Little pisses me of more than grumpy, old, bitter people criticizing those in their 20s and late teens for being “too idealistic”, and then grouping us all into one undefinable glob. While this post is not focused on the video seen above, it exemplifies exactly what I am talking about.

It exemplifies a lethal betrayal, bottom of the barrel self-esteem, and outright moral cowardice.

“Go fuck yourself.” is too kind a comment for any idiot willing to say such a thing, on radio or otherwise.

Like I said though, this post is not about her, her betrayal, or the personal misery she lives with every day. It is about the collective grouping she expresses in her statement. It is about the homogenization of every young person into one giant “naive” group.

I believe this is Ron Paul’s single greatest debate performance in history. As I’ve discussed before, Ron Paul is set to win the office of the president and become the next President of the united States — one of the few men in American history who will actually be deserving of that title.

Many people are still skeptical to varying degrees about this. I believe the majority of skeptics left fall into one of two camps. There is a minority of people left who are genuinely ignorant of Ron Paul. They will “come around” easily as Ron Paul continues to destroy what’s left of status-quo politics.

The two main camps then are

A. Zombie Sheep

Brainless, spineless cowards who long ago lost the ability to think independently. These are the people who will be writing in “John McCain” because they still think it’s 2008. Most of these people will sleepwalk through their entire lives and will never support Ron Paul, life, and liberty. Such a man and such concepts are antithetical to their entire…

 
Literally speaking, whenever someone violates your unalienable rights*, with open violence, you have a right to defend your self by any means necessary, to preserve your life and limb from serious or lethal injury. This includes the use of a firearm of any type, size, or power.

What ‘authority’ the violator claims is of no objective consequence so far as your rights are concerned — and declarationally speaking, of no legal consequence.

Good video, good article, give it a watch/read.

*If you forfeit your rights by violating the rights of others, this no longer applies, such as when a criminal robs and murders someone, and is then shot by police in pursuit, an armed citizen seeing the conclusion of the crime and attempting to stop the criminal, etc.
