It Is Dissent From Government Policies Which

Freedom Is Not Defined By Safety. Freedom Is Defined By The Ability Of Citizens To Live Without Government Interference. Government Cannot Create A World Without Risks, Nor Would We Really Wish To Live In Such A Fictional Place. Only A Totalitarian Society Would Even Claim Absolute Safety As A Worthy Ideal, Because It Would Require Total State Control Over Its Citizens’ Lives. Liberty Has Meaning Only If We Still Believe In It When Terrible Things Happen And A False Government Security Blanket Beckons.

If We Stuck To The Constitution As Written, We Would Have: No Federal Meddling In Our Schools; No Federal Reserve; No U.s. Membership In The Un; No Gun Control; And No Foreign Aid. We Would Have No Welfare For Big Corporations, Or The "poor"; No American Troops In 100 Foreign Countries; No Nafta, Gat, Or "fast-track"; No Arrogant Federal Judges Usurping States Rights; No Attacks On Private Property; No Income Tax. We Could Get Rid Of Most Of The Agencies, And Most Of The Budget. The Government Would Be Small, Frugal, And Limited.

The Most Important Element Of A Free Society, Where Individual Rights Are Held In The Highest Esteem, Is The Rejection Of The Initiation Of Violence.

The Federal War On Drugs Is A Total Failure... The Federal Government's Going In There And Overriding State Laws... Why Don't We Handle The Drugs Like We Handle Alcohol? ... I Fear The Drug War Because It Undermines Our Civil Liberties. It Magnifies Our Problems On The Borders. We've Spent Over The Last 40 Years A Trillion Dollars On This War And - Believe Me - The Kids Can Still Get The Drugs. It Just Hasn't Worked.

Let It Not Be Said That No One Cared, That No One Objected Once It’s Realized That Our Liberties And Wealth Are In Jeopardy.
