NEWS AND.... THE REST OF THE STORY Linked stories are for your consideration - I never endorse anyone's opinion but my own. All my writings are well researched; particularly stories pertaining to the environment, renewable energy, military science and bicycling. Note: As a former American soldier, I don't take sides in international conflicts and try to be objective.

The state of a person who is a chattel of another. Submission to a dominating influence. Our rights – to think, speak, publish, worship, defend ourselves, travel, own property, be left alone – are natural to our humanity. These rights preexisted the government. Their source is our humanity. Government does not grant these rights. Rather, its primary purpose – as stated in the Declaration of Independence, its sole purpose – is to protect these rights. No man can have a right to impose an unchosen obligation, an unrewarded duty or an involuntary servitude on another man. There can be no such thing as “the right to enslave.” Eleutheromania, or eleutherophilia is "a mania or frantic zeal for freedom".Some usages of the term make it sound like it could be used in a medical context with a hint of an irrational disorder, a mad zeal or irresistible craving for freedom. passion for liberty. Individuals with this condition are called eleutheromaniacs An antonym for the term is eleutherophobia. An individual that fears freedom is an eleutherophob “Politics: the art of using euphemisms, lies, emotionalism and fear-mongering to dupe average people into accepting--or even demanding--their own enslavement.” ― Larken Rose People are difficult to rule, because of their knowledge. [Tao Te Ching chapter 65] "What good fortune for those in power that people do not think." - Adolf Hitler Confinement is Liberty. Abortion is Life. War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. Ignorance is Strength. “ None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free” ~ Goethe ------------------ “It is difficult to free fools from the chains they revere” ~ Voltaire Any alleged “right” of one man, which necessitates the violation of the rights of another, is not and cannot be a right. ~ Rand Rights are not a matter of numbers - and there can be no such thing, in law or in morality, as actions forbidden to an individual, but permitted to a mob. ~Rand A man is no less a slave because he is allowed to choose a new master once in a term of years. ~ Lysander Spooner “Fascism and communism are not two opposites, but two rival gangs fighting over the same territory – both are variants of statism, based on the collectivist principle that man is the RIGHTLESS SLAVE OF THE STATE. ~ Rand "There is no difference between communism and socialism, except in the means of achieving the same ultimate end: communism proposes to enslave men by force, socialism - by vote. It is merely the difference between murder and suicide. " ~ Rand "He who is unfit to serve his fellow citizens wants to rule them." ~Ludwig von Mises The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. ~Rand "To trudge: the slow, weary, depressing yet determined walk of a man who has nothing left in life except the impulse to simply soldier on." - Auctoritas non veritas facit legem - Authority, not truth, makes law We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. “An unarmed man is an enslaved man!” “A disarmed man, is a conquered man!’ “I shall not be enslaved or conquered!” Sic Semper Tyrannis! Truth is Treason in the Empire of Lies ~ Dr. kNOw Ron Paul The further society drifts from truth, the more it will hate those who speak it. ~ George Orwell “Those who are capable of tyranny are capable of perjury to sustain it.” ~ Lysander Spooner
I've concluded that I am a MAGA Libertarian (did I coin a phrase?). I will never be a Republican or Democrat. The Libertarian Party is psycho-bitch. Do with that what you will. I will probably offend you at some point, no matter how hard I try not to. I'll not lie and do my best to combat ignorance with humor. I am one of the grandfathers of the BBS age. i was a hobbyist ISP running 72 TCP/IP channels and 8 dialup lines on Worldgroup in the 90s. My handle was Surfman on Inner Circle 0 to 3 day warez. PiL My wife and I love our children and animals. We are active guardians trying to save as many critters as possible. That's me in a nutshell.
Just a grumpy old man.

I'm here to help us all. I'm unlimiting myself so I may help unlimit you. I expect nothing in return. Like the sun gives light to the moon not expecting the moon to owe it one -Linkin Park (where i heard that first) I intend to be a part of the solution, not a part of the problem. If we all give more, we all get more to give more again. It's in the "want to" we discover the "how to” If it is meant to be, it is up to me
