The Constitutionalist

Normally Liberty Legal Foundation’s attention is on our mission to reform America’s courts. Today is different because tomorrow is the election day we have all been waiting for.

You, a fellow Constitutionalist, are the well-informed American that must vote. But not only that, you must do everything you can to encourage other well-informed Constitutionalists to vote. Please spend your evening visiting your neighbors, calling your friends, and calling your family. Turn off your TV or cancel other plans if you must. Dedicate this one evening to contacting the people you know who believe what we believe. Remind them to vote tomorrow. Remind them of the soldiers that have died in dark and lonely places to preserve our freedom. Ask them to give our Republic one more chance. Then, get out and vote tomorrow.

You may have important state and local issues that will be decided tomorrow. Remember, our battle against overgrown government must be fought on every level. If you’re aware of a local issue that’s important to our freedom, remember to tell your friends and neighbors about that issue. If there’s a candidate that will fight for individual freedom, remind your contact list to support that candidate. Often local issues and compelling individual candidates motivate people to vote. Use these issues to get like-minded Americans out to the polls tomorrow.

I believe that one leader in the right place can turn the tide for America. Only God knows who that candidate is, or what office will give him or her the platform needed to make a difference. What we do know is that for the first time in a long time America has many patriots running for office on every level. Please get out and support the candidates that you think will make a difference.

In Liberty,

The Law By Frederic Bastiat

What Is Law?
"What, then, is law? It is the collective organization of the individual right to lawful defense.

Each of us has a natural right — from God — to defend his person, his liberty, and his property. These are the three basic requirements of life, and the preservation of any one of them is completely dependent upon the preservation of the other two. For what are our faculties but the extension of our individuality? And what is property but an extension of our faculties? If every person has the right to defend even by force — his person, his liberty, and his property, then it follows that a group of men have the right to organize and support a common force to protect these rights constantly. Thus the principle of collective right — its reason for existing, its lawfulness — is based on individual right. And the common force that protects this collective right cannot logically have any other purpose or any other mission than that for which it acts as a substitute. Thus, since an individual cannot lawfully use force against the person, liberty, or property of another individual, then the common force — for the same reason — cannot lawfully be used to destroy the person, liberty, or property of individuals or groups.

Such a perversion of force would be, in both cases, contrary to our premise. Force has been given to us to defend our own individual rights. Who will dare to say that force has been given to us to destroy the equal rights of our brothers? Since no individual acting separately can lawfully use force to destroy the rights of others, does it not logically follow that the same principle also applies to the common force that is nothing more than the organized combination of the individual forces?

If this is true, then nothing can be more evident than this: The law is the organization of the natural right of lawful defense. It is the substitution of a common force for individual forces. And this common force is to do only what the individual forces have a natural and lawful right to do: to protect persons, liberties, and properties; to maintain the right of each, and to cause justice to reign over us all."

For July 4th

"On this Independence Day, I will remember the fire of liberty that burned in the Virginia House of Burgesses, when Patrick Henry, a Southern man, rose to declaim, "Give me liberty or give me death." Virginia Burgess Peter Poythress was there to pledge his fortune and faith to his countrymen." Read the rest HERE.
