By Justin Raimondo The US State Department has quietly ceased cataloging violations of religious freedom in its “Country Reports on Human Rights.” Of course, it’s just a coincidence that this comes at a time when Washington is allying with radical Islamists in Libya, Syria, and Iraq.

By Jules Boykoff This week marks the one-year anniversary of the London riots. In the wake of last summer’s destruction and the flurry of finger-pointing about who was to blame, London’s Metropolitan Police launched what they called “Total Policing.” A peculiar brew of creepy branding and wishful thinking, […]

From RadGeek.Com In Tacoma, a few months ago, a woman called 911 seeking protection when a fight with a guest turned violent. Unfortunately, when you call 911 they send the cops, and government police are not interested in protecting you; they are interested in controlling the situation. The […]

By Stuart Bramhall Owing to candidates tripping over each other to be tough on immigrants and crime, the crisis of massive prison overcrowding is an issue that receives scant attention in an election year.

By Walter Williams In Europe, especially in Germany, hoisting a swastika-emblazoned Nazi flag is a crime. For decades after World War II, people have hunted down and sought punishment for Nazi murderers, who were responsible for the deaths of more than 20 million people. Here’s my question: Why […]

The man had it right. I was thrilled when I first encountered this essay sometime in the 1990s as I had already come to a similar conclusion myself. By Murray Rothbard THE ELABORATION OF A systematic theory of liberty has been rare enough, but exposition of a theory of […]
The Rand Paul phenomena vindicates Rothbard’s prescient warning against “right-opportunism.” He also warned against “left-sectarianism” (listen up, left-libertarians and social anarchists). From the Economic Policy Journal Dan Cotter emails: I think Murray Rothbard laid out the best strategy for the liberty movement ever in this letter to F.A. […]

Something you’re unlikely to ever be told by the mainstream media
A keen observation from Neil Hiatt of N-AM: “So it is racist to feature a monkey after a Black person but not an Asian, Oriental, or White person? Hmmmm, seems that the very same PC stormtrooper goon squads crying for an apology are actually the ones that think […]

Rand gets more sketchy all the time. I admire Ron Paul a great deal, even if I think running for president is not a viable political strategy, but I was always more skeptical of Rand and the more I observe him in action the more I distrust him. […]
By Justin Raimondo The obituaries are coming in, and as usual they are filled with the trite things Americans are obsessed with: Gore Vidal’s sexuality, his “coldness,” his feuds, his quips. Andrew Sullivan is typical – and isn’t that typical – in ascribing what he views as Vidal’s flaws to his lack […]
