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

The most glaring example of the cognitive dissonance on the left is the concept that human beings are inherently good, yet at the same time cannot be trusted with any kind of weapon, unless the magic fairy dust of government authority gets sprinkled upon them. Moshe Ben-David

Truer Words

Robb Allen links to a bit of interesting fundraising news: The Brady Campaign received only one large (over $200) donation during the year 2009, $2,500 from one Michael Wolkowitz of New York. I Googled Mr. Wolkowitz and found this page for the environmental disaster film The Age of Stupid from which I took this screenshot:

I guess this guy wants "freedom from fear" too.

And apparently freedom from having to think?
