"Our Founding Fathers embedded this enduring principle in America’s Constitution, but this critical freedom is hard to sustain in our politically correct age. For this important freedom isn’t really free; the cost is to extend the same freedom to those who disagree with you—those who might even offend you while exercising the very freedom you treasure."

Protect Yourself And Your Family Against TSA Tyranny
"........ I was turned away from the security screening checkpoint at Memphis International Airport when I declined both AIT screening and the secondary 'enhanced pat-down' procedure. I was attempting to enter the facility for my commute to Houston, where I’m based as a pilot for ExpressJet Airlines, doing business as Continental Express. I did, however, pass through a standard impulse induction metal detector without triggering an alarm, just as I have done approximately once per week at that same checkpoint (which happens to be in Terminal C – hence, “Checkpoint Charlie”) for the past four and a half years."

Question To The Supporters Of Keeping Narcotics Illegal
"Do you realize how easy it is to plant drugs on your property? A truly simple example would be to smash a car window or three, prompting you to call police to make a report for the insurance company. You'd be fixated on the missing stereo and not realize what was added to your vehicle (such as a bag of pot). Or, if you have real estate, how would you like to lose it on the basis of wild pot or somebody tossing a baggie into the house when you are away?
The concept of persecuting people for possession of anything (gold, anti-Soviet literature, drugs, alcohol, heretical artifacts) is the ease with which even those who support the measures can be framed. The Inquisition burned up a lot of good Catholics, and NKVD shot or starved more than a few staunch Communists. The US no-knockers have the ability to do much the same...and some are using that ability."

"Useful Idiots"
"This is not a threat. This is not a prediction. This is not a call to action. It is settled history that has been repeated many times. It has all happened before and will happen again. This time, it will happen to you.
You're on the menu too-you're just last on the list."

Viral Music Video For Independence!
This “lip dub” — a music video with people lip-synching to music — was made to promote the Catalan Independence movement. 5,771 people participated, which makes this a world record for a music video. The video has gone viral, with over 630,000 views in just a few days.
It’s enough to make you think that secession is catching on all over the world.
The video, entitled “The Flame,” is in Catalan, but it’s worth watching just to experience the dazzling visuals and the utter joy of these people celebrating their historic culture and proclaiming their determination to make Catalan free. When the closing credits start, the huge crowd sings the *Catalan anthem.
Now tell me — what can the dreary conformity of multiculturalism offer compared to this?

| *Catalan; | English; |
| Catalunya triomfant, | Catalonia triumphant |
| tornarà a ser rica i plena. | Shall once again be rich and bountiful, |

I Still Dream About You
"The success of Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe, which turned into a blockbuster movie starring Kathy Bates and earned Flagg an Oscar nomination for screenwriting, boosted Flagg's profile as an author. She has since written several more best-sellers full of Southern folks, spunky women, and heartfelt comedy. In her newest book, I Still Dream About You, a 60-year-old former Miss Alabama contemplates giving up on life"

George Will Schools Lib Panel On Tea Party Causing GOP Civil War
"At the beginning of the year, the question was, will the Tea Party people play nicely with others and will they obey the rules of politics? Who's sort of not playing nicely?" asked Will.
"Mr. Crist starts losing the primary to a Tea Party favorite Rubio. He suddenly discovers that he's an independent and changes all his views overnight," he continued.
"Mrs. Murkowski loses a primary and suddenly discovers that she has a property right in her Senate seat and she's going to run as a write-in. Senator Bennett thought of that in Utah, Senator Castle in Delaware is thinking of a write-in candidate. Who are the extremists?"

Running Scared On Confederate History
"A pair of Confederate flags have flown over the Confederate Memorial Chapel in Richmond since 1887. Those two flags did not trouble the Union soldiers who donated the organ to the chapel; nor did they trouble Ulysses S. Grant. They honored the bravery of thousands of Virginians, most of whom did not believe they fought to defend slavery. But McDonnell panicked when attacked by those who would never support him politically. This was an act of political courage?
The two Virginia leaders who should be praised for their courage on this issue are not Allen and McDonnell but former governors Mark Warner and Tim Kaine, Democrats who had enough respect for the descendants of Confederate soldiers to allow the flags to fly at the chapel throughout their terms in office."
Sons Of Confederate Veterans Camp Is Starting In Mebane
"A group in Mebane wants to honor its Southern heritage by creating a Sons of Confederate Veterans camp.
There are camps in Burlington, Chapel Hill and Greensboro, but Carl Singley says enough folks are traveling from Mebane to those meetings that it’s time the city had its own chapter."

"We Still Retreat Again And Again"
Oleg Volk
"We reflect in the comfort of warm, peaceful homes
That history's trails loop back on themselves
TV and newspapers debate the same topics
Contained in the pages on dusty bookshelves
The words like “empire”, “democracy”, “dire”
Have sounded thus even back in the day
When forefathers went to fight fire with fire
Their stiff armored ranks keeping neighbors at bay
At least we can savor our own Pax Romana
That legions enforce at no small cost
Watching with pride the victorious Triumphs
Forgetting of liberties recently lost
We promise ourselves that all will be well
Times have changed since 1848
Authoritarian hordes will retreat
Defeated by HTML barricades
Yet we know that sword stops the eloquent pen
Cannon censors the writers dead
And in pawn to the King's – or the President's men
We lie meekly in self-made beds
Some say: “Times have changed from the bad old days”
They may even believe those words
But we know the future is almost ablaze
With more encompassing wars
Girdling loins with arms in dead of the night
To stem fright and the enemy twain
Ready to flight by the first morning light
We still retreat again and again
While thugs we elect harm in our names
We like ourselves all the same
We vote with ballots instead of blades
Playing meekly the same fixed game"

Why I Am An Anarchist
"I am left with the bleak conclusion that no attempt to hold the arrogance of government in check will work — because a majority of the people themselves are too easily seduced into abandoning their own institutional protections against tyranny by the false promises and poisonous dreams of statist propaganda.
No, we are a Republic or at least we are supposed to be........
That is why I am an anarchist."
