by Keith Knight | Nov 15, 2020 | Don't Tread on Anyone
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpYZZafQOPM The state cannot be fought by simply boycotting it, as a private business could, because an aggressor does not respect the negative judgement revealed by boycotts. But it also simply cannot be fought by countering its...

by Jim Bovard | Nov 11, 2020 | Featured Articles, Politics

by Laurie Calhoun | Oct 23, 2020 | Featured Articles

It NDs Today: The Swiss Adopt a Lemon
The Gods help them in this very silly selection by the Swiss armed forces. ND is a negligent discharge where the pistol fires when you haven't asked it to. Most inconvenient. So the Swiss are buying a gun that technically failed the evaluation just to keep the...
