How to Create a ‘Black Market’
The State and its lackeys work diligently to prove to us that they only have our “best interests” at heart. They care so much for us that they have constructed laws to protect us from ourselves. Never mind that these laws are so selective (i.e., alcohol is good, marijuana is bad) that even the most hard-hearted statist can see through their charade.
When the State decides that something people desire is “harmful” and needs to be regulated, a black market often develops to provide for the demand. Recent history has shown us that this void is filled by people who are forced to use violence to protect their businesses from not only rival competition, but the “troops” the State puts on the streets to “war” against the “economy” they’ve created.
I recently heard, “if it weren’t for the I.R.S they never would’ve stopped Al Capone.” Well, if it weren’t for Prohibition we never would’ve heard of him!
Prohibition not only creates an underground market but it also leads to issues with quality control. An acquaintance told me recently that a high school friend of his got a hold of some bad “moonshine” and was in the hospital suffering delusions. That’s today, when alcohol is legal. Go read some of the stories from the Twenties, it’s horrifying.
Prohibition by the State has proven to be more dangerous to life and liberty than any Free Market.
‘That’s What Real Leadership Looks Like’
Says the disgusting Kamala Harris (no matter how much clown makeup they put on her) about Senile Joe Biden’s plan to call on the 50 governors to mandate mask wearing for all people “outside.”
And they say Hunter is the crack zombie.
Jim Bovard in the Daily Caller: Can Ending ‘Endless Wars’ Save Trump’s Presidency?
Four years ago, Donald Trump electrified campaign audiences by denouncing “Trigger Happy Hillary” Clinton. Trump bragged in 2016 that his advisers knew “how to avoid the endless wars we are caught in now” but he has yet to deliver on what many voters believed was his most important campaign promise. Can he revive his faltering reelection bid by boldly withdrawing American troops from much of the world?
Patrick M. Rose Boston Police Union Leader is Child Rapist
Patrick M. Rose, a former president of the Boston Police Patrolmen’s Association, was ordered held on $100,000 bail Thursday on charges that he sexually assaulted a girl on “multiple occasions” from when she was about 7 to about 12 years old.
Rose pleaded not guilty at his arraignment before Judge Kathleen Coffey in the West Roxbury Division of Boston Municipal Court. For most of the hearing, he kept his back to the courtroom and wore a mask and blue plastic gloves, and held one hand over the right side of his face.
Prosecutor Audrey Mark said, “There is a need for high bail. This is an extremely serious case. The allegations are quite heinous.” …
Suffolk District Attorney Rachael Rollins said outside the courthouse that the allegations put Rose’s conduct as a police officer into question, including arrests he made and his encounters with minors.
“We don’t want any preferential treatment,” she said. “We are going to be looking deeply into this because this is a broken trust.”
Coffey set various conditions if Rose does make bail, including that he must stay away from the victim, have no unsupervised contact with children younger than 16, undergo GPS monitoring, and surrender his passport, firearms, and license to carry firearms.
“I think we all recognize this is a very sad and serious case,” Coffey said. “Most importantly, most importantly, the gentleman needs to surrender all firearms and the license to carry so future purchases can’t be made.”
Coffey slated the next hearing in Rose’s case for Sept. 10.
A police report filed in court alleges that Rose sexually assaulted the victim, who is now 14, on “multiple occasions and diverse dates.”
Rose faces a total of nine charges: including one count of aggravated rape of a child and five counts of indecent assault and battery on a child under 14.

Who’s Sick of the ‘Zombie Reply?’
On the day Hugh Hefner died I posted a picture on Twitter with a quote in which he puts forth the idea that we own our minds and bodies, and for church or state to attempt to limit that, is inappropriate. A random Tweeter deduced from the comment that if “his own mind dictated to him that he build a foundry on HIS property and it poisoned the area that would be perfectly fine.” Mind you he’d be poisoning himself as well but…
This is the type of reply you come to expect when you wake up to the fact that you were born to be free of rulers and pursue what makes you happy. When you get vocal about it, these types of responses become typical.
The meme above addresses one of the most essential natural rights that you possess: the right to be left alone, or privacy. I remind you that it has nothing to do with a magical piece of paper and only you can defend it. A typical response when it comes to privacy, which the government says you must give up for the sake of “safety,” is clear in the meme. Even if you’re not doing something wrong, do you want someone constantly looking over your shoulder?
