The Smallest Minority

The Smallest Minority
The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities. - Ayn Rand Liberty is an inherently offensive lifestyle. Living in a free society guarantees that each one of us will see our most cherished principles and beliefs questioned and in some cases mocked. That psychic discomfort is the price we pay for basic civic peace. It's worth it. It's a pragmatic principle. Defend everyone else's rights, because if you don't there is no one to defend yours. - MaxedOutMama I don't just want gun rights... I want individual liberty, a culture of self-reliance....I want the whole bloody thing. Kim du Toit

Squeaky is kinda in a bind. It looks like she'll be eating ketchup soup for a week or two, if she can afford the water. I've been a poor college student before. It sucks. First, her job shorts her an entire week's pay, then her car died. I can't forward her any money out of the Soldier's Angels/Jed's Dental Fund, but she's put up a tip jar (left sidebar of her blog) in her desperation. I've given her $50. C'mon - help a gunblogger out. Any little bit helps. She's good people. Labels: blogging, linkery, miscellaneous \| posted by Kevin at 10:30 AM PermaLink HOME
