“Derrick J’s Victimless Crime Spree” Street Date Delayed to 2/19

DVDPlease accept my apologies for this unfortunate news:

Our distributor, MVD, (They have been great, by the way.) has had to push the street date of the Director’s Cut DVD back to 2/19. They were moving offices around the new year and said a “comedy of errors” led to missed deadlines, which led to failing to deliver the DVD when-promised.

I wish I had better news, but the DJVCS DVD IS still coming, and it will be worth the wait!

The good news is you can still get your pre-order in at the $8.99 price through Amazon.

Thank you for being patient and understanding.

While you are waiting for the extra month, you could keep busy by writing your review of the movie on Amazon, IMDB, or our site.

Plus, you can watch the trailer for the DVD. Then, start thinking about having a screening of the DVD for your friends, family, or general public! Here’s more about doing that.

Finally, please take a moment to like the DJVCS Facebook page or join the email list to be kept-in-the-loop about the movie.

Why is Fosters’ so ill-informed? Buzz, I’m looking at you.

In response to the 2 recent editorials Foster’s Daily Democrat has published, “Co-opting our way of life” (reprinted at the bottom of this, for context) and “FSP Has Some Growing Up to Do” (link to previous FK post), I wrote the following piece which Fosters’ published today:
What Free Staters are and aren’t

The two anonymous editorials that Foster’s has printed in the last week regarding the Free State Project reflect a lack of understanding that I’ve found only in the most closed minded individuals, left or right, here in New Hampshire.

In early 2001, Yale doctoral student Jason Sorens brainstormed about what might happen theoretically if libertarians got together in one place. In the ensuing 10 years, the reality far surpassed anything young Sorens could have imagined, and he’s said so many times. Quoting his original essay as gospel or blueprint misses the boat entirely, nobody but the most strident opposition are even reading it. Certainly the 13,500+ current signers to move aren’t, nor the 1,000+ who have moved over the last 8 years. Professor Sorens wrote a “10 years on” sequel essay refuting much of what he wrote back then. Theory: 20,000 activists. Reality: Far less are needed, and more effective than he imagined.
