MarcStevens.net | This is another example from a government, this time from someone acting as the IRS, admitting the law is not what dictates their actions. It’s their own policy that governs, even in contravention of their own “law”. It’s a pretty accurate generalization that violent people have no tolerance of “laws” or principals of right and wrong.
GrahampWright | An inquisitive alien visits the planet to check on our progress as a species, and gets into a conversation with the first person he meets.
GnosticMedia.com | Today we’ll be discussing what it means to believe in government. Is government real, or a figment of your collective, religious imagination? Does not voting mean that we’d be sitting around like a bunch of lazy couch potatoes doing nothing?

The march had been banned by the Stormont government but there was no sense of fear as the marchers, singing and chanting, wound their way down from Creggan and through the Brandywell and Bogside.

LarkenRose | A lot of statists are trying to hijack the term, in the hopes of making themselves sound learned and principled. When anyone says, "I'm libertarian on certain issues," he's either demonstrating his ignorance, or intentionally lying.
