Such traditions of discipline and self reliance are a part of a more socially conservative agenda. Most skinnies frown upon tradition and discipline. View Quote I guess by skinnies you mean libertarians or anarchists/voluntarists? It is for damn sure, that for a civilization to be such, it needs rules, common values, customs, manners, protocols I would say MORE than government. Most of our society runs by these rules most of the time w/o resorting to violence. W/o those the only hope for things NOT to be chaos is a leviathan who can hold everyone in awe. (I can appreciate how hobbes came to that conclusion after living through the civil war where people hadn't agreed to just disagree about religion yet.) Anyway, there is this notion that libertarians etc are anti-social, rude, radical or something. Perhaps it is well deserved, or it is just propaganda, I'm not sure. Since most people do not identify themselves as libertarians, obviously whomever I know that self identify is not a representative sample. Though that self identification is on the increase lately along w/ the popularization of the concept of constitutionalism (finally). Please just understand that libertarianism is not a repudiation of traditional social values morals or manners. Libertarian/Anarchist thinkers understand well that a society w/ less/no government needs that foundation of values all the more. The argument is merely that violence and theft is bad and that this group of men we call "government" either should do it as little as possible or not at all. I guess there are some "libertarians," like Bill Mahr, who just want license to do drugs, fuck & abort etc w/o being hassled. I think most understand that civilization, government or not, stands or falls based on whether: 1. most children are raised by their parents who love each other 2. most people are responsible for themselves, industrious, honorable, and have a sense of responsibility for their community. 3. people are polite and thoughtful etc. Libertarians/Anarchists understand that trying to use force to impose those things is counterproductive and/or immoral. Certainly, so long as there is a government there to insulate us from the consequences of our irresponsible behavior, people we be thus, and a positive feedback loop of irresponsibility and using government power to compensate for that will lead to a larger state and less freedom till it collapses under its own weight. |

All the whore jokes aside. American Patriots need people like this who are not afraid to get the message out. Leave it to the Left to disparage them. Lets not do that ourselves.

View Quote Hey! I took the walking dead tour in atlanta and got to see this set among others for the hunger games that day. They filmed about 10 minutes worth of stuff in places that I instantly recognized, pretty cool. My wife even has a few pieces of coal from district 12. They used real coal, which was nuts since you don't even see it in the movie. |
