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

This is One of the Most Difficult Things I Have Ever Watched

And it's a prelude to tomorrow's Quote of the Day. It's about ninety minutes long. I knew bits and pieces of the information, but there was a lot I was completely unaware of, and I've never before seen all of it laid out in one continuous, historical timeline from Stalin to the present day.

The Soviet Story, 2008, found at Dr. Sanity

UPDATE: Blip.TV pulled the video. It's available at Veoh.com for the time being, but you have to install their software to see the whole thing. Veoh allows you to watch just the first five minutes without doing that.
