This Makes More Sense Now . . .
. . . well, if sense is the right word.
One of the books I picked up recently is Matthew Bracken's Enemies Foreign and Domestic. Actually, I ordered Domestic Enemies via Amazon and it came in on Thursday, but I bought Enemies Foreign and Domestic at the Funshow Saturday. I'm reading it first. I'm about halfway done.
I now understand the Department of Homeland Security's "Rightwing Extremism" report we were all talking about a couple of weeks ago.
Apparently someone in the department read it recently.
I bet they had kittens.
Good.
The concept of Personal Sovereignty must scare the piss out of them.
Just not enough, you know, to actually stop.
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
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
The cult of the left believes that it is engaged in a great apocalyptic battle with corporations and industrialists for the ownership of the unthinking masses. Its acolytes see themselves as the individuals who have been "liberated" to think for themselves. They make choices. You however are just a member of the unthinking masses. You are not really a person, but only respond to the agendas of your corporate overlords. If you eat too much, it's because corporations make you eat. If you kill, it's because corporations encourage you to buy guns. You are not an individual. You are a social problem. -- Sultan Knish
All politics in this country now is just dress rehearsal for civil war. -- Billy Beck
