I have no use for the State, if State is defined as the Political Means of death, coercion, violence and theft. What good can come from the State? None. It's been estimated States killed up to 200 million people in the 20th Century. Think about all those lost in all of history, due to what States has done. How far behind are we? Two thousand years, maybe? Think of all the inventions lost, all the advances in all fields delayed. It is the year 2005. I swear, when I saw “2001,” I honestly thought we'd have space stations and men on the moon and maybe Mars by 2001. Hah! Was I fooled! Where's my flying car? I should have a flying car by now, so I could go to the moon on ...
What's Up with White Women -- and White Men?

Since I began writing for VDARE.com, FrontPageMagazine.com, and American Enterprise.com in 2001, there is one article that has been more often quoted than any other: What’s Up With White Women? (It appeared on FrontPageMag May 18, 2001, but is no longer available on in its website). There is something in this article that has been considered fundamentally important by authors with such diverse approaches to as Pat Buchanan (The Death of the West, pp. 155-156), Robert Spencer (The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam and the Crusades pp. 177-179 and Religion of Peace pp. 2-3), and most recently, Michael Medved (The 10 Big Lies About America, pp. 9-10). My original article was meant to ...
Jobless hit with bank fees on benefits

For hundreds of thousands of workers losing their jobs during the recession, there's a new twist to their financial pain: Even as they're collecting unemployment benefits, they're paying bank fees just to get access to their money. Thirty states have struck such deals with banks that include Citigroup Inc., Bank of America Corp., JP Morgan Chase and US Bancorp, an Associated Press review of the agreements found. All the programs carry fees, and in several states the unemployed have no choice but to use the debit cards. Some banks even charge overdraft fees of up to $20 -- even though they could decline charges for more than what's on the card. "It's a racket. ...
Florida Can't Keep Up With Concealed Weapons Permit Requests

BY STEVE BOUSQUET Herald/Times Tallahassee Bureau TALLAHASSEE -- People in Florida are fearful of the economic future, and one way they are coping is by buying guns. The state office that issues concealed weapons permits is buried under a backlog of 95,000 applications, and doesn't have enough money in its budget to do the job. A legislative budget panel is being asked to approve a midyear budget transfer of nearly $4 million to catch up to the demand for permits. ''People are getting scared,'' said Agriculture Commissioner Charles Bronson. ``The economy is scaring them. They don't want their houses broken into.'' Bronson's Cabinet agency includes the ...
Dear President Obama, Could You Please Send Me a Stick?

Dear President Obama, Since you and your administration have seen fit to bail out certain people to the tune of several trillion dollars (that's looking at it long-term, with the interest and the fact political programs rarely get cancelled), do you think it would be too much for you to send me a stick? My back goes out every once in a while, and I sure could use a stick to use as a cane. I'd rather have a nice Irish Blackthorn cane, but that cost $70 or so and I'm sure the government can't afford that much. But it sure seems one of his assistant can find an oak branch lying on the White House grounds? If you can find it in your heart, and the Federal Reserve, could you ...
Guantánamo: Lies, Damned Lies and Statistics

On January 22, in an executive order relating to the closure of Guantánamo, President Barack Obama established a comprehensive review of the cases of the remaining 242 prisoners, to work out who could be released and who should continue to be held. The executive order explained that the review was to be “conducted with the full cooperation and participation” of the attorney general, the secretaries of Defense, State and Homeland Security, the director of National Intelligence and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, but in reality, it was expected that the lead would be taken by the Justice Department. The most thoroughly discredited department in the Bush ...

From “Planting Seeds” in The Guardian in January: “Bill and Melinda Gates hate controversy, but the world’s top philanthropists do seem to be moving ever deeper into political lobbying. They’ve just given the Danforth plant science centre in St Louis $5.4m (£3.8m) to help them persuade African and other poor countries to “overcome regulatory hurdles” and allow the field testing of bio-fortified GM crops. So what is Danforth? Just a “charity” set up and funded by Monsanto.” From Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svalbard_Global_Seed_Vault “The Svalbard Global Seed Vault is a secure seedbank located on the Norwegian island of ...

Not One More Acre! Ranchers in Colorado's Piñon Canyon fight a massive Army land grab.

Mack Louden spits Copenhagen juice on the floor of the empty storage bay of his shuttered feed store in Trinidad, a small town in southeastern Colorado an hour’s drive from Louden’s ranch. He rests his hand on a leather cell phone holster like a gunslinger might. Then he grins. Or maybe it’s just that he doesn’t frown. He is letting something happen that’s pretty alien to his nature: There’s a photographer with a lens about two inches from the nose on Louden’s life-creased, weather-worn face, crowding his personal space. Under any other circumstances, someone this far inside his personal space would get some serious pushback. But Louden, an activist for ...

John Quincy Adams wrote this in 1821: "Wherever the standard of freedom and independence has been or shall be unfurled, there will be America's heart, her benedictions and prayers, but she goes not abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She is the champion and vindicator of her own." Has the US government even paid just the littlest attention to that quote? Noooo. Those geezers who founded this country didn't know what they were talking about, did they? Their views are passé, 200 years out of date. It's like the people I meet who think Dubya's MBA is worth more than 2000 years of philosophy ...

I wasn't much of a fan of Star Trek: the Next Generation. "Q," that lisping interstellar drag queen, didn't impress me, and every time I saw Jean Luc Picard I thought, "Three hundred years in the future and they still can't fix baldness? Can't they reassemble him in the transporter with a full head of hair?" At least no one wore glasses, except for that Gordi LaForge guy with his goofy car air-filter visor. I kept expecting him to take it off and shake the dust out of it. (I did like the original series, although I thought they should have dumped William Shatner and replaced him with James Coburn. And Sean Connery would have made a great Klingon.) I will ...

According to the 1990 movie, Spaced Invaders, you insert Tab A into Slot B. If that doesn't work, you can look at the archetypes in the movie. They give instructions that, in the Western world, run back to the Bible, and before that, the Greeks. People used to educate children with classical myths, fables and fairy tales. They still do, but not as much as they should. If they did, everyone in boot camp would know what a Myrmidon is. Today, what has for the most part taken the place of the aforementioned trio are movies, books, cartoons and comics. The same archetypes, themes, plots and wisdom that existed thousands of years ago in an oral tradition still exist today in cartoons, comic ...
Killer Ants from Space

The Greeks had a myth about what the State considered the perfect soldier – an ant. These ant soldiers were called Myrmidons. They didn't question orders, they didn't think, they just fought and died. Every portrayal of soldiers I have read in all those dystopian science-fiction novels I read all the time are just updated versions of that old myth. Portrayals of the military didn't used to be this way. We can use as an example Robert Heinlein's novel, Starship Troopers, which was made into a movie that, although it has the same name, has little in common with the novel. In fact, it is a degenerated version of the book. The late Heinlein was strongly libertarian in ...

This is it; I've had it, I quit, no more. I've rearranged my thoughts and they have decided I'm never voting again. It only encourages politicians. It's like feeding French fries (oops, sorry, Freedom fries) to one of those obnoxious yappy little dogs; if you feed them they're going to keep begging, and if you quit they growl and give you dirty looks and tell you all the awful things that are going to happen to you... but never do. My response: the same as in the movie Something About Mary when Ben Stiller ducked and the family-jewels-chompin' dog flew out the window and then found he had several vertical stories to travel down to the hard, hard horizontal ground.

I am striving . . . to discover whether man still has a place in this tangle; whether he still has any authority among these colossal masses in movement; whether he still can exert any force whatever on the statistics which are slipping from his hands into the abstract and the unreal. Can he have a place, authority, and possibility of action on a better basis than ill-founded declarations of hope or blind acts of unreasonable faith? ~ Jacques Ellul A friend of ours has observed that one of the consequences of having children and grandchildren is that "they give you more people to worry about." As both a father and grandfather, her observation is correct. I have long been of the ...
Bank nationalization march (on Wall Street) predicted
Post Date: 2009-02-16 05:40:04 by Tatarewicz

A coalition of progressive political organizations, trade unions and groups against poverty, racism and foreclosures is expected to protest taxpayer bailouts of banks and call for their nationalization. Protesters are expected to march on Wall Street in New York this year and call for permanent nationalization and the outlawing of gimmicks like derivatives. Nationalization would break the hold of corrupt but powerful financial interests which have incalculably damaged the world economy. Ideally, the Wall Street demonstration would form part of a Global March on banks, including London's "The City" where the majority of Britain's and much of the world's financial ...

I am listening to replay of Alex Jones' show from Friday and there is a guy speaking about these county meetings with the feds where the feds are asking a lot of unusual things of his county, including inquiring about the amount of bodies they can accommodate in a mass grave situation, demanding they author a plan for inoculating the entire population of the county against undisclosed diseases within 48 hours, etc. I got to wondering if there is anything like that going on in my county, so I went to the Schoharie County website, found the public notices page, and discovered a way to sign up for emails for just about any county notice, meeting, etc. I signed up for anything and ...
Holocaust Conditioning

For many (or some) of us that were subject to intensive Holocaust conditioning as kids in American public schools, we saw films of hundreds and thousands of piled bodies from old WWII footage a few times a year - year in, year out. We were told they were Jews that had been murdered, gassed mostly, by the Nazis. I recall seeing my first one of these films in the early 1970's when I was about nine or ten years old. It went on for my entire education in the Boston area and then in high school in Columbia, Md. when my family had moved. In 1978 when the NBC television miniseries "Holocaust" was required watching for my social studies class, it seemed perfectly natural that we ...

Poster Comment:About 20 years ago I saw the 1965 James Stewart movie "Shenandoah." It has never been on TV again, and that is no coincidence. It's about the War Between the States, but is not pro North or pro South. It's mostly anti-government and pro-family. I just got it from Netflix but haven't watched it yet. "Shenendoah" is the only song I can play on the harmonica.

In what officials caution is now a dangerous and even deadly crime wave, Phoenix, Arizona has become the kidnapping capital of America, with more incidents than any other city in the world outside of Mexico City and over 370 cases last year alone.

Congress takes first step to impose limits on Obama's executive power Earlier this week, I wrote about the State Secrets Protection Act of 2008, which was co-sponsored by numerous key Senators [including Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton, as well as the Senate Judiciary Committee's Chair (Pat Leahy) and ranking member (Arlen Specter)], and which was approved by the Judiciary Committee last year with all Democrats voting in favor. That bill, in essence, sought to ban the exact abuse of the State Secrets privilege which the Bush administration repeatedly invoked and which, now, the Obama administration has embraced: namely, as a weapon to conceal and immunize government lawbreaking (by ...

Questioning Authority: A Rethinking of the Infamous Milgram Experiments

By Liliana Segura, AlterNet. Posted February 12, 2009. A famous 1970s experiment was recently replicated, revealing what it takes for us to question and resist those in positions of authority. Between 1963 and 1974, Dr. Stanley Milgram conducted a series of experiments that would become one of the most famous social psychology studies of the 20th century. His focus was how average people respond to authority, and what he revealed stunned and disturbed people the world over. Under the pretense of an experiment on "learning" and "memory," Milgram placed test subjects in a lab rigged with fake gadgetry, where a man in a lab coat instructed them to administer electrical ...
Jury nullification at work in marijuana, gun cases

by J.D. Tuccille, Civil Liberties Examiner Jury box The jury box is just about the only place where average citizens can veto bad laws. In Washington, D.C., a jury ignored a military veteran's obvious violation of the city's draconian gun laws, setting him free with only a slap on the wrist. In LaSalle County, Illinois, a medical marijuana user found with 25 pounds of the plant didn't even get the slap; jurors chatted with him after finding him not guilty. While we can't know for sure, in both cases jury nullification was likely at work as regular people serving an important role in courtrooms exercised their power to quash laws they found repugnant.
