Passive resistance has its extremes:

I absolutely cannot believe that I totally forgot the terrible significance of this day. I feel like such an ass for not giving it a single thought until now, as the sun begins to set on me and my neighbors.

But now that I’ve been reminded, I’ll be thinking about those hundreds of thousands of people slaughtered in cold blood. The mothers. The fathers. The children. All of them–total strangers though they were, who lived long before my time–are on my mind right now.

Nobody in this country should ever forget what this day means. Nobody. Ever.

Nobody.

Ever.

Where would we be without the state on the lookout for terrorist jellyfish?

Not only do politi-gangsters see walls as solutions to numerous problems, they also seem to revere them:

What Neocon or state apologist could not be moved by this sight- the red, white, and blue; the stars, stripes, and barb wire?

Don’t say you weren’t warned. Asking honest, logical questions, directed at the state, can get you a kick in the teeth:

Big Brother’s snooping grows ever more obtrusive:

This latest news on the Transportation Security Administration’s valiant efforts to keep us all safe and protected from the Islamo-Fascist Terror Menace comes to us by way of Manuel Lora at Lew Rockwell’s blog:

For arguing with a TSA agent, Robin Kassner wound up being slammed to the floor. She’s filed a lawsuit.

“I kept begging them over and over again get off of me…and they wouldn’t stop,” Kassner said.

And it wasn’t enough for another woman to show TSA agents nipple rings that set off a metal detector. The agents forced her to take them out.

Mandi Hamlin said, “I had to get pliers and pull it apart.”

In Chicago, people like Robert Perry are subjected to exhaustive security checks. He was patted down, his wheel chair was examined and his hands were swabbed, all in public view in a see-through room at the security checkpoint. Perry, 71, is not alone.

“It’s humiliation,” Perry said.

Perry was also taken to a see-through room by a TSA agent when his artificial knee set off the metal detector.

“He yelled at me to get the belt off. ‘I told you to get the belt off.’ So I took the belt off. He ran his hands down over and pulled the pants down, they went down around my ankle,” Perry said.

At that point, Perry was standing in his underwear in public view. He asked to see a supervisor. That made things worse.

“She was yelling ‘I have power, I have power, I have power,” Perry said. The power to stop him from flying to Florida with his wife that day to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary.

“It makes you feel like you have no rights,” Perry said.

In case you haven’t already, be sure to check out Root Striker Roger Young’s new article for LewRockwell.com, “Proud To Be a Vietnam Vet?”

Roger asks some pretty difficult questions that may cause the heads of many in our statist culture to explode from the sheer internal pressure built up by cognitive dissonance.

The Emperor keeps his privileged lips locked in response to truth seekers:

Even an aborigine from the outback can recognize a con man when he sees one:

Just one more perverse charcteristic of the state- its lavish displays of dead bodies, belonging to those individuals inspired by the myth of national sacrifice:

JJ’s got something to say about niggers. Maybe he can kneel for redemption at the feet of Michael Richards:

If the state cannot get its way through deception it always resorts to force:

A friendly reminder to those who think they are in charge:

The state’s methods of invasion and plunder grow more bolder and annoying by the day:

Iraqis enjoy yet more freedom from the successful surge:

How is this any different than what the government does when it exacts tribute?

The Wench Perry begs others to rebuild her precious, uninsured mansion:

The Sire of Stimulus illustrates his vision for the US economy:

The enviro-wackos are aligning with the US military.  A group has risen from the statist slime calling itself “Green Collar Vets“, a nonprofit organization who’s mission is “to coordinate skill development, education and employment opportunities in emerging Green Industries for U.S. military veterans.  ”I’ve offered some suggestions for productive “green” jobs for ex-soldier boys and girls:

• Help dig proper graves for all the tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis and Afghans they’ve murdered.
• Clear invaded countries of depleted uranium and cluster bombs that will kill even more innocents in the future.
• Close down all military bases in occupied countries and perform all necessary environmental cleanup. Only God knows what filth and pollution they have produced.

It’s the perfect union, the environmentalists and the military. One group hates the idea of humanity even populating the earth while the other is highly skilled and experienced in actively eradicating such life.

Green used to be a pleasant color, arousing sensations of pleasant summers and the smell of freshly cut grass.  Now the hue brings to mind images of pagan-generated genocide and neo-Luddite tyranny.
