It all started with a simple question. What can one person do to spread the message of Liberty? After 8 months, 3100 miles and 7 pairs of shoes Will Buchanan has found the answer. Will started the Walk for Liberty on April 14 from Cannon Beach, Oregon and will be crossing his last state line into New Hampshire Saturday Dec. 13th. The Walk for Liberty is a quest to let as many people as possible know about the loss of freedoms in the United States of America .
Each day Will has made a video of his trip. These videos are available on his blog at http://walkforliberty.com. If you want a primer on libertarianism and its interaction with the real world, watch these videos. As an added bonus, you can enjoy the stunning scenery – America on foot. (more…)
The brilliant John Stossel takes some powerful pro-liberty ideas and delivers them effectively to a wide audience. Here’s his latest 1 hour special, the “Politically Incorrect Guide to Politics”. This is a great video to show anyone still “in the system” and new to liberty. Stossel makes it crystal clear that government doesn’t work and that it creates devastating unintended consequences:
An avowed and proud egoist born and raised in New Hampshire, Josh is new to Keene and is studying architecture at Keene State College. He was fortunate to develop his mind and concepts of reality in a relatively free area of the world. Unfortunately, he was born to such people, been to such “schools” and subjected to such circumstances as to learn from first hand experience the nature of authority and the frustration of constant assault against individualism. With an artists mind and sensibility, Josh has always run against the grain, resisting any and all attempts at confinement and conformity. Rejecting the notion of God as nonsense by age six, he has always felt a compulsion to shatter the illusions of authority around him. The pseudonym Vesuvius describes perfectly the new fire of activism and awareness roaring from a once dormant peak, the activism of the Free State Project being that awakening rumble.
This is a distillation of all of what I consider the best info on this topic that I have absorbed over the years. We have learned; now we must test, modify, test, modify…
Record the scene on video, audio, porc411, or any combo of the three. Announce your recording upon the bureaucrat’s approach. Even if you have no cel signal, consider bluffing, “Hello officer, this conversation is being recorded and broadcast on the internet.” Betcha that will change his demeanor right up front. If he objects, claiming that is illegal or that he doesn’t consent, inform him that you “intend no disrespect”, but if he wishes to avoid being recorded, he should leave, otherwise as you are in public he is consenting by remaining in the vicinity of the microphone.
Keep your hands visible. These guys are either scared of you hurting them or they are worse, looking for an excuse to hurt you. Don’t give them the opportunity.
Questions are the most powerful thing you can do in an interaction with any bureaucrat. Questioning keeps you in the “master” role and prevents you from revealing info. It also turns the tables on them, as they are used to sheep answering just any question they ask.
If ordered to do something, make sure they realize what they are doing. I believe this is a paraphrase of Dave Ridley’s line, “Are you going to hurt me if I don’t?” (Or if you’re feeling particularly ballsy, try “Is that an order? I’ll happily fill your order but you will become liable for a bill in the amount of $XXX. Do you still with to place your order?”)
“Am I free to go?”, “Am I being detained” – Commit to memory and utilize.
If you are coerced into signing something, sign something like “Under Duress, All Rights Reserved”, just above your signature.
Don’t speak their language. Do not “understand”. These are people who talk in a language that sounds like English, but it’s not. It’s legalese. Their words can mean things different from the common understandings of them. If you don’t believe me, pick up a law dictionary and see for yourself. Unless you know the legal definitions of the words they use, you cannot “understand” them. (more…)
AnarchoJesse is a self-described “hardcore civil disobedient”, preferring outright subversion and disobedience over political action. Arrogant, honest, and assertive, he’s been described before as both “afraid of nothing” and “Market Anarchy incarnate”. As a principle, he believes that the only way to reveal the inadequacies and immoralities of the State is through open demonstration to force the State’s hand as well as education, under the guiding idea that all violence can only beget more violence. This, he feels, is what separates civil and moral people who act consensually from barbaric and immoral people that act with violence to achieve their goals.
