        Sorry about that, I forgot. Basically Alex Jones went to a rally that was set up in Austin TX by libertyrestorationproject.org, and just basically crashed it and was shouting over a loudspeaker against the rally. It's basically completely against everything the liberty movement is about, and everything that AJ speaks about in the first place. In my opinion, he's just trying to get attention, and doesn't fully subscribe to liberty.

          Not actually watching the video, since I'm blocked from YouTube, but I think we all know Alex Jones is a nutjob. Well, everyone except CSS. But it's ok... I found someone worse than CSS... Chatted with him last night on a different site... He started with the Federal Reserve, moved quickly to 9/11 conspiracies, then slid around the corner into the New World Order conspiracies, the Illuminati, Freemasons, collusion among worldwide central banks... I kinda stopped paying attention at that point, but... wow... he was making CSS look good by comparison. I only stuck around long enough for that much, because I was waiting to see if he blamed it all on little green men in Area 51.

            My thing is, to me, some makes sense, and I'll back it. But saying that the freemasons are evil just makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Anyone trying to make a case for that has nothing better to do. They should go gamble, and start questioning how to beat that system, instead of saying that the very people who made the most free country in the history of the world are behind some evil plot to destroy humanity. So yeah, I half agree with you on that one Ian lol there's a first.

              I don't know if I'd give the masons quite that much credit, but I agree that they're a Good Thing (tm). Just goes to show, though... CSS isn't the worst one out there.

                True, maybe they weren't "the ones" to create the constitution, etc... yet, they had a lot of say in it. But yeah, CSS is just concerned about the direction that we're going in.

                  I think we're all concerned about the direction we're going in. We just can't agree on how to properly change that direction. Personally, I'm starting to think we're past the point of no return, and that we're screwed no matter what we do.

                    See, that's probably another way you and I differ. I'm not such a cynical guy, I'm pretty optimistic. I just believe it takes a re-education of what our founders believed, and then you'll see progress to liberty, and self-sufficiency/self-protection/self-government. I think the biggest problem is believing that government can solve everything. But the thing about government is that it is coercion and force. All government power comes from the consent of the governed, and then the barrel of a gun. More regulations and more wars just destroys all freedom. Once we realize that, and start repealing laws instead of creating new laws, I think we'll be a little bit more prosperous. Obviously, this doesn't quite convey all of the ideas that go along with these premises, but this is the very foundation that my philosophy is based on. It's based on property and the idea of the "self". I'm sure you've heard these ideas before though.

CSS is looking for explanations for his own catastrophic failure in life.   He's spent many years attacking this site, and as many years jumping from one conspiracy to another.   At one stage he was posting the details of his personal life ( remember when he worked as a fry cook, and some girl showed her the swastika tattoo on her genitals, and he was in love ? ).   His life appears to me to be a train wreck, I can see why he needs excuses for it.

                          Liberty. In a truly free society (which is, I think we can all agree, NOT what we have today), we'd all be able to protect ourselves. Gun banning suspends the second amendment, which is the right to self-defense, and now we see encroachment into a police state. Crime rates are only seen in progressive cities, especially detroit. crime is through the roof, residential closings are at all time highs. and school shootings? those are few and far between, at least from what i've heard. If you keep living in fear, the government will continue to wipe away liberty. That's all I have to say about this one.

The second ammendment is not a right to carry arms day to day, it's a right to own them for the purpose of forming a militia.   Which made sense when your gun at home, and the guns the army had, were the same.   Today, it is a nonsense. josda1000 wrote: If you keep living in fear, the government will continue to wipe away liberty. What amuses me about this, is that my observation of life in the US is that your media seeks to keep people in fear, if people by and large buy into it or not, is another question.   There's certainly a lot more fear in the USA than there is here at home.   Guns don't seem to me to be a factor in this equation.

The second ammendment is not a right to carry arms day to day, it's a right to own them for the purpose of forming a militia.   Which made sense when your gun at home, and the guns the army had, were the same.   Today, it is a nonsense. josda1000 wrote: If you keep living in fear, the government will continue to wipe away liberty. What amuses me about this, is that my observation of life in the US is that your media seeks to keep people in fear, if people by and large buy into it or not, is another question.   There's certainly a lot more fear in the USA than there is here at home.   Guns don't seem to me to be a factor in this equation.

                                      This is illogical, and kind of proving my point as well at the same time. Knowing that he doesn't have a gun doesn't mean he doesn't have an axe, just like you. This is just like saying, if axes are outlawed, I know I can go downstairs with my fists ready because he doesn't have fists. The point is, you need to defend yourself. Besides, if a guy really wanted to rob you, he'll find a gun anyway. Just because guns are outlawed doesn't mean he won't get one anyway, because he's already breaking the law by going into your house.

                                      See, that's the thing. People that own guns have a way to defend their houses. That's what we do here, cuz we actually have backbones. No offense, but seriously think about this.

                                      Yes. It is. "The right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." Keep = Own. Bear = Carry. Arms = Guns (specifically rifles)

                                        This implies you actually do live in a dreamworld, Christian. Take it easy buddy, and try to act with a little logic sometimes. You don't always have to be a bully. I'll take hillbillies for five hundred, Alex.
