On Saturday attendees at Houston's End The Fed rally were exposed to the ideas of complete liberty, compliments of activist extraordinaire John Bush.
I have nothing but respect for John for reasons that should be obvious - he's a doer and an effective and passionate speaker able to distill down a seemingly complex issue into one that's clear and accessible.
It's all about choice - when your ability to choose is restricted or denied entirely as is the case for "law enforcement" and the criminal [in]justice system today, accountability is non-existent and market signals are absent. But as John outlined, we need not be satisfied with the Statist Quo or live in fear; we can strengthen our communities and create institutions that serve our needs more efficiently and morally. As that happens, legitimacy granted to violence-based monopolistic institutions is eroded - eventually becoming just a relic of the past.
Thanks to TrinityTexas77 for recording!

"Please, whenever you have an internal conflict amongst yourselves, please, I beg you do not go to the police, do not go to the justice system; but arbitrate amongst yourselves."
Sure thing, sweetheart. You remember that when some asshole punches you in the mouth and steals that cute little hat off the top of your head. You just chase him down and go ahead and "arbitrate" with him. Or were you talking about everyone else, besides you?

@4II3randy Wait, could you explain how he is the best president -- do you mean in the number of consecutive invasions and bombings of other countries?? or were you thinking of the most drug-related arrests per year, of peaceable people? Or the most power grabbed by a single individual who claims he is allowed to assassinate anyone anywhere on the face of the planet? Or the greatest larceny? Do you admire violence, power, and control as the most outstanding characteristics of a president?
