Free Speech

Yesterday members of the Free State Project sent New Hampshire State Rep. Cynthia Chase a "thank you" card and flowers for the free media coverage generated by her anti-freedom comments because they expect it will boost their recruiting efforts.

Well, I would like to live in Ireland and even with the bad economy, give it a go, however I'm not sure just how bad it is.

I don't require a lot to be happy. A small town, good fishing, perhaps hunting (optional), quiet green cool hills to relax and read good books, good neighbors, a nice supporting job of repairing or perhaps a little shop on the main street in town to sell goods and talk with the people. All without permission from a government to do so.

"The US government really wants Wikileaks founder Julian Assange. They’re mad at him for releasing video of the military’s murder of civilians in Iraq and more recently a list of sensitive diplomatic cables too long to get into here. A grand jury has been empaneled in Alexandria, VA to consider criminal charges against Assange. He may never be extradited to the US for trial, but what if he is?"

"From FIJA’s website:

You just knew it was coming.

You just knew that some politician, somewhere, was working diligently to figure out a way to destroy the Internet because, face it, cyberspace offers way more freedom to common, ordinary, unimportant civilians than the government-hugging politicos can tolerate.

Turns out that West By God Virginia Democrat Senator Jay Rockefeller was that someone, having spent months secretly drafting a bill that would "permit the president to seize temporary control of private-sector networks during a so-called cybersecurity emergency." (CNET News).

Contrary to popular opinion, willful ignorance, or intentional misrepresentation, libertarians do not believe in isolationism.

Libertarians believe in nonintervention.

People who just can't get enough of the authoritarian way of life love to tell us, "If you're innocent of wrongdoing you have nothing to fear from government."

So why has Sam Dodson been held indefinitely, on $10,000 cash bail, without access to legal council for 19 days, in an unsanitary jail cell in the Cheshire County Correctional Facility in Keen, New Hampshire, since April 13th?

In Indiana, commuters were unexpectedly warned "RAPTORS AHEAD -- CAUTION."

And Austin, Texas, got its own sample of sign hacking with "NAZI ZOMBIES! RUN!!!"

"Over the past century, the size of the government has been growing. Its totalitarian reach has been extending, just as its spending has been increasing. Many times, with the increased legislation and laws, it apparently creates more problems than it solves. It seems, as of late, that the federal government intends to continue policing morality."

"SAN ANGELO, Texas — The mothers of children removed [kidnapped] from a West Texas polygamist sect's ranch after an abuse allegation are appealing to Gov. Rick Perry for help."

And this comment sums the situation up nicely:

Wow. Baptist ministers* rape teen girls too. Let's go take all the Baptist kids and lock them up. Then when their mothers want to come see them, lets tell them no. Then when the mothers that they rounded up too want to call their loved ones to tell them what's happening, lets take away their cell phones.

"Steven R. Shapiro, the ACLU’s legal director, has said his group is in a "Catch-22" because the government says the identities of people whose communications have been intercepted is secret. But only people who know they have been wiretapped can sue over the program"

It's a nice sunny day so you decide to go anti-war protesting with your friends.

You will be arrested.

If you obey all the rules, demonstrate peacefully, don't trespass or block building entrances, or obstruct public sidewalks or impede auto traffic, or destroy property and don't run with scissors, you will still be arrested.

You may be arrested for kneeling or shrugging or leafleting or wearing a plain T-shirt or holding a bucket of paste.

It has become illegal in the USSA to unknowingly break unknown, never-before-heard-of laws while protesting war.

Soundbite from a TV commercial for a new channel:

FOX Reality
All reality all the time,
because you just can't get enough!

Does that scare you as much as it does me? How insane has the general US public become?

Two men with foreign, suspicious-sounding names, Elahwal and Iqbal, were arrested for the capitalistic entrepreneurial crime of using satellite dishes to distribute Hezbollah television station broadcasts to their New York-area customers. Since the USSA government designated the station, al Manar, as a global terrorist entity, the two men face five-year prison terms for stupidly believing that freedom of speech exists in America. The thinking, apparently, is that anyone watching a terrorist TV station is guilty of aiding global terrorism. In related news, SWAT-clad FBI agents raided the HBO studios where the TV series "The Sopranos" is taped and roughed up everyone they could get their gunbutts on.
