A good discussion on Target Liberty

Robert Wenzel's site, "Target Liberty", is a site I go to several times a day. There is a good discussion there now about obligation, libertarianism, and so on.
Some of the commenters really make me wonder about humanity in general.

Suburban primitives in action

The great Will Grigg will be joining us tomorrow on the first hour of Patriot's Lament radio. Will is always a straightforward truth teller, who is not afraid of the State!

Terrorists commit arson, still not charged with crime

Our story today is about several terror arsonists who started a fire on federally owned land. 

Although it is not certain whether the fire was created on purpose, it ultimately burned more than 85,000 acres. The fire spread quickly, causing many people to evacuate their homes, and the fire destroyed several cabins and outbuildings.

The cost of containing the fire has reached over $20 million. At the time of this publication, no one has been prosecuted for the destruction of the federal land, even though there are many suspects.

Right now there are no property damage estimates by the federal government, but many say it is in the millions, awaiting a federal investigation. The fire was started during a BLM-stated "high risk fire" day. Heavy dense smoke has filled the nearby valley, reducing visibility to less than a quarter mile. People at high risk with breathing disorders, the elderly, and children are recommended to stay inside their homes, and it is also recommended that one does not do any rigorous work in the outdoors. The local borough has also set up a safe house for people with respiratory conditions. 

We will continue to follow this story and follow up with any updates on the potential prosecution of the individuals who caused the fire.

This is an actual story, that happened here in Fairbanks 2 years ago. There still has been no prosecution of anyone who started this fire.

Why?

Because it was started by the U.S. military during a training exercise, even though the BLM did not grant them a waiver for conducting the live fire exercise, and the Fire Chief on Ft. Wainwright recommended that they hold off on the exercise as well.

This fire caused serious damage to the people of the Fairbanks North Star Borough, and breathing was extremely difficult for several weeks as a result of the fire.

But there were never any criminal prosecutions for the fire.

Contrast this to the Hammonds, two of whom, after being charged using an anti-terrorist law with minimum sentencing, are serving a 5-year prison sentence, and were also charged with a $400,000 fine. If this fine was not paid, the BLM could seize the ranch and sell it at auction, with the BLM having first right of refusal by the court if such a case happened.

Why?

Because the Hammonds started a back fire to protect their home from a lightning fire which, although it did stop the lightning fire from not only burning their home, but also stopped the fire from potentially burning thousands of acres of BLM "owned" land, undeliberately burned approximately one acre of BLM land.

Who, in America, are actually the domestic terrorists?

Military starts fire against BLM recommendations.

Old war or new? "There is nothing new under the sun"

How true these words are.

The old war, Liberty vs. the State. Whether man can or should be free to do with his Life, Liberty and Property as he sees fit. Isn't Property all these 3?
The State, particularly the U.S. state, sees itself as the ultimate arbiter of all these things that the founders of this people took for granted as the basic Rights of man.
But how?
Isn't every politician voted into office but a mere mortal?
And yet these, these treacherous beings of the State, claim that some certain people are not worthy of Rights that others have.
Hmm.
The Japanese internment?
Who are these, mere mortals that will face the same judgment that all men will face, to decide what is right for you and for me?
Randy Weaver?
Waco?
Boston?
Our Liberty, the basic ones, the Unalienable ones, that De La Boetie and Locke showed for the world to see 300, no 450 years ago, that could not be infringed save the minimum tacit support of a people.
And at whose cost?
Those same people.
The Leviathan State of America routinely devours even the most basic human Rights that a person has.
The TSA? Airport security, what kind of people subject themselves to such ridicule, only to be told, "you don't have to fly."
And who are these gods that claim the right to hold you and touch you and prevent you from travel?
Mere men, most that were jobless before they became TSA "agents."
Law Enforcement officers are caught daily on camera beating, shooting, and abusing all manner of men, women and even children. The only "peace" they are concerned with is the peace of the State. Who are these brave Combatants that "risk their very lives" as they march into a protest of unarmed, sitting people, clubs swinging? Just other people. No more.
 We have a State department that has decided what things are not to be on the Internet. Every sort of filth is allowed by these gods, but not simple plans to build an even more simple gun. They claim ownership of these plans and say that mere mortals cannot have them.
Who are these gods in the State department? Just a bunch of people.

The Tyranny goes on and on; we live in a Corporate State that is literally feeding off the wealth of the people who live within its borders, in a way that has never before been seen in history. Their standard of living continues to rise and rise, while the sheep continue to feed them, and live on less, and are beaten and killed for asking why this is.
But I do think their time is short. Very short. The frantic way the State is increasing its militaristic approach on its "own people" tells me they are very afraid, and know their time draws to an end.

Psalms 3
 O Lord, how many are my foes!
    Many are rising against me;
² many are saying of my soul,
    there is no salvation for him in God. Selah^[a]

³ But you, O Lord, are a shield about me,
    my glory, and the lifter of my head.
⁴ I cried aloud to the Lord,
    and he answered me from his holy hill. Selah

⁵ I lay down and slept;
    I woke again, for the Lord sustained me.
⁶ I will not be afraid of many thousands of people
    who have set themselves against me all around.

⁷ Arise, O Lord!
    Save me, O my God!
For you strike all my enemies on the cheek;
    you break the teeth of the wicked.

⁸ Salvation belongs to the Lord;
    your blessing be on your people!

Patriot's Lament February 16, 2013: Property and Marriage

In this episode we talk about Absolute Property Rights again. We also talk about how the State uses "Patriotism" to our demise, "Don't revolt, just vote"!! Yeah right. We go on to talk about the gay marriage debate, and reject the State being involved with marriage at all. We pint out that the State can produce only bads, and we put Randy in our crosshairs and don't let him off the hook.

Patriot's Lament January 26, 2013: Fallacies and Something to Fight For

In this episode we talk about fallacies the State employs against us, and how we would free ourselves from tyranny if we could see through it.
We also talk about homeschooling, and what things are worth fighting for, and as you might guess, politics isn't among the list.

Patriot's Lament January 12, 2013: Coming for Guns and Stand Up for Vets

In this episode we talk more about the state "coming for our guns", and about soldiers with PTSD. We talk about Rights, and whether or not one can even give up their Rights voluntarily, and read John Lockes view on the State trying to infringe on them.

Patriot's Lament December 29, 2012: John Locke and Obey The Law

In this episode we talk about 17th century classical Liberals John Locke, and Algernon Sidney, and the importance of their contribution to Libertarian Revolutionary thought. We also talk about America's heritage of being a free thinking people, and one of secession from injustice and tyranny. We also talk about gun laws and the Right to Keep and Bear arms, and the real reason for that Right. It doesn't come from the 2nd amendment folks. In the second hour we discuss positive laws and how the State excuses themselves from the laws they impose on us mere serfs. Enjoy!

Let your vote always be, "NOT GUILTY"!

New Hampshire actually did something almost completely right. Jury Nullification.
Now people, make a real change and NULLIFY the State.
This is excellent. I hope the folks of New Hampshire jump on their newly found, but always their Right to do, shut down the State.
Good to see most of the comments are positive towards it too.
A reminder, this "law" isn't giving anything to the Jury that they didn't already have, maybe it will just help to wake a few jurors up.
Pay close attention to the one dissenting vote, some commie statist who thinks that the state and its law is god, and of course it is, she is the one who makes "law". "Makes law". Hah. If a man can make law, it's no law you should follow.

New Hampshire Nullification

"We are bound, you, I, and every one to make common cause even with error itself, to maintain the common right of freedom of conscience," Thomas Jefferson to Edward Dowse, 1803

 The great object of my fear is the Federal Judiciary. That body, like gravity, ever acting with noiseless foot and unalarming advance, gaining ground step by step and holding what it gains, is engulfing insidiously the special governments into the jaws of that which feeds them." -- Thomas Jefferson to Spencer Roane, 1821.

"By the bill of rights of England, a subject has a right to a trial by his peers. What is meant by his peers? Those who reside near him, his neighbors, and who are well aquainted with his character and situation in life." Patrick Henry, (Elliont,The Debates in the Several State Conventions on the Adoption of the Federal Constitution, 3:579).

"Why do we love this trial by jury? Because it prevents the hand of oppression from cutting you off...This gives me comfort - that, as long as I have existence, my neighbors will protect me."Patrick Henry (Elliot, 3:545, 546)  

 "Jury lawlessness is the greatest corrective of law in its actual administration. The will of the state at large imposed on a reluctant community, the will of a majority imposed on a vigorous and determined minority, find the same obstacle in the local JURY that formerly confronted kings and ministers."US v. Dougherty
