Right after they ask you “Who will build the roads?” the next thing a statist will usually ask an anarchist is “What about crime?” A valid enough question that plenty of people have difficulty answering, so I figure it time I join the long list of people who have already addressed it. I haven’t read…...
So, you’ve probably seen this video titled “Man Shot For Camping” or “Homeless man executed for camping“, if you haven’t I’ll embed it below. This has been showing up in all my social media streams, people are posting it as comments on totally unrelated threads, anything they can do to get this video seen by people…....
I just read a rather painful article in Forbes titled “Sorry Libertarian Anarchists, Capitalism Requires Government“. It was written by a contributor named Harry Binswanger, who ironically enough says he defends laissez-faire capitalism, except for, you know, those things he wants the government to do. To make matters worse, reading that article lead me to remember a…...

Rand Paul made headlines Wednesday with his endorsement of Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell’s reelection campaign. McConnell, also from Kentucky, is widely viewed as an “establishment” Republican, so the move came as a stunning blow to tea partiers, and political libertarians alike, who had hoped to mount a primary challenge against McConnell in 2014. It…...

Giffords, whose unfortunate survival put her center stage in the gun control debate,…...
It has been said that society is just nine meals away from anarchy. Didn’t I feel stupid when I ate nine meals right away and still had to pay taxes. Sure enough, even after the “government shutdown” still, no anarchy. What happens though, if the people who depend on the State for their meals, can’t…...
One great division amongst libertarians is about “conspiracy theories”. I hate to use that term, because while a lot of the things people like Alex Jones talk about are complete nonsense, the term “conspiracy theory” is used to dismiss an idea without considering it, and a lot of things commonly dismissed as “conspiracy theory” are…...
Besides perhaps Kim Jong Il, I’m not sure there ever was a dictator as obnoxious as Muammar Gaddafi. He took power in a Coup d’état, funded “revolutionary” groups all over the world, but of course, murdered anyone who dared to challenge his own power. That of course is in addition to the ridiculous clothes, and the long…...
Since the seizure of Silk Road, and the arrest of Ross Ulbricht, the alleged mastermind of the online drug market, aka Dread Pirate Roberts, the United States Federal Government has alleged that he took part in at least two murder for hire plots. Both of the alleged plots, involved a government agent pretending to be…...
