How to get to Peace and Freedom

[Captain Red Eye]

Juror nullification is a little-known tool for the justice seeking person to employ.
It is powerful, which is why Judges, Prosecutors and other State control freaks don't like it.

I may expound further on this topic later in this thread. The video gives a decent overview of the basics of juror nullification. I can say I have first-hand experience seeing that juror nullification has kept some good people from going to prison unjustly. It works!

This video may lead the viewer to ask the question, "but without government...how would you do X" ?

Thomas Sowell identifies the disintegration of the black family via government welfare policy begun in the 1960s as a causal factor in racial disparities today. Fatherless families were "encouraged and subsidized" by government policy. That had unintended negative consequences.

This government "solution" has created a legacy that is often erroneously assigned to slavery. Slavery created it's own problems, but black family disintegration and the problems that came with that, and still exist today are from something else....government welfare policy.

I view the welfare system as one stereotype keeping another stereotype out of their neighborhoods.

I also view the prison system as employment for those who can’t rise out of the hoods created by the welfare system.

People in this system have accepted this. It’s a part of the culture.

Statistically black families in the late 1950s and early 1960s had far more fathers in homes, higher employment, fewer children out of marriages, etc. They were "making progress" out of poverty despite any echos of slavery from 100 years prior.

The liberal "solution" of giving welfare to black women from the mid-sixties forward, only if the father or no other man (stepdad, live in boyfriend) were in the home, incentivized fatherless homes.

The result of that is apparent today. The problems of black culture today are less from the legacy of slavery and more from the unintended consequence of paying black women only if the dad left the home.

Liberal policy fucked things up. What exists today is often attributed solely to "slavery" or "racism", except the evidence shows otherwise. Government is a root cause of the problem.

LBJ didn't care about blacks, he cared about their votes. Many blacks are figuring this out now, the democrats used them hard.

Ever read Malcom X’s autobiography? He at one point said the that the white liberal was black people’s worst enemy.

His views changed some after traveling abroad but I don’t think he ever renounced that statement.

I also believe he knew he would be killed by his own people.

It’s pretty obvious what the welfare system has been used for. Perhaps it didn’t start out that way….but it sure has become an enabler of the prison system.

I appreciate men like Thomas Sowell, Denzell Washington and Morgan Freeman who aren't afraid to say, what they say. I appreciate Malcolm X for identifying white liberals as being harmful to blacks advancing way back in the 1960s before he got taken out for not following the narrative.

Black culture embracing victimhood and violence is self-immolating and won't solve anything.

Many young "educated blacks" today don't want to hear that, because they've been 'educated" to think it's all whiteys fault. Partially right, but not the way white liberal academia has trained them to believe. They've been lied to. Also, many of todays "educated blacks" are doing a form of "oppression appropriation" and use their race as a way to say they themselves are oppressed. In comparison to their grandparents these people are whiny spoiled brats. Posers, "oppression appropriation", I like that term!

Many white liberals treat some black people like mascots or virtue badges, "my black friend" and parrot liberal talking points about "racism" being the cause for every shitty thing blacks do or have happen to them.

That's insulting and shows they're mostly unaware that big government caused the problem and won't be the solution. Bernie Sanders school of economics and virtue signaling only makes these kinds of problems worse.

Yes he did! Didn't see your post while I was writing mine. Good point!

That dude sees it how it is. Neither of us are maniacs arguing over the illusion of freedom or political ideologies….like most of these other entities. Pointing out hypocrisy and bullshit gets you insulted…and put on ignore. That’s ok with me. There are plenty of programmed shit heads on here…spewing hate and ignorance.

My opposition to politics is well documented. I don’t vote or pretend the masses are free. I definitely don’t support political parties….nor the spreading of their propaganda on a mainstream pot forum. Fuck them….every fucking time

I'm not sure I understand your question.
Could you be a little more specific what you mean so I can respond?

Thanks.

The power to end wars is held by the populace and it isn't by using a vote.

In another thread I recently pointed out my opinion that evolution. not revolution, has a greater possibility at gaining peace and freedom for humanity.

It should be noted that a system based in coercion, virtually every government on earth now, cannot ever bring peace. This is self-evident, since the means they use to gain and hold subjects is a violation of peace and doesn't just disappear into the ether since it is omnipresent. The best a coercion based political system can ever bring is imposed order. That is empirically true and therefore a fact.

In every Presidential election since 1908. the "winner" (highest number of people) was the nonvoter. More people abstained than any of the people that were declared the election winner. That is a good thing and tells us something.

I like the video below, but caution people not to let it persuade thinking that violence is the proper implication. If the numbers are accurate, violence isn't necessary, resolve and peaceful disobedience would be enough...

Larken Rose has some good ideas on freedom, but a penchant for finding goofy t-shirts.
Can't win 'em all.

This was recorded at "Porcfest" in Lancaster.NH in 2012. Porcfest is an annual freedom festival with liberty oriented speakers, camping, live music. food vending etc. put on by the Free State Project every year in June.

One thing that always annoys me is that the USA not only holds it's citizen / serfs in a form of assumed political bondage it's that it makes them pay to kill people across the globe and that people willingly go along with that. I don't go along with that.

I would resist a draft and will not kill people that aren't actively trying to kill me. It's wrong to kill people based on orders from a tyrannical master and I won't do it or support it.

Here's a song for those who feel differently!









Flaghumper - Hogeye Bill

---

When the president says That it's time to go to war You can see him wave his flag Because he knows the score See him marching to the tune Of what his rulers say is true And who is he to question The red, white and blue He believes his ruler's shit He's a real patriot He loves Big Brother He's a real flaghumper Flaghumper flaghumper He doesn't know the name Of the enemy du jour If he hadn't been disabled He'd 'a done another tour His nation is now fighting In a place he can't pronounce And the scumbag coons who live there Well their lives ain't worth an ounce He believes his ruler's shit He's a real patriot He loves Big Brother He's a real flaghumper Flaghumper flaghumper They tell him Mr. Demon Is the evil new Hitler He's Ortega or Saddam Osama or Bette Midler So he was an ally In the past, but now it's later If you've got a memory Then you're probably a traitor He believes his ruler's shit He's a real patriot He loves Big Brother He's a real flaghumper Flaghumper flaghumper

Don't try to explain Whey they don't like us The gooks hate freedom And we are righteous If the US killed their children It was for their own good We're just a super-power And so misunderstood He believes his ruler's shit He's a real patriot He loves Big Brother He's a real flaghumper Flaghumper flaghumper Am/Dm/ G/AmGAm/ Am/Dm/ G/C/E/ AmGAm/ (AmG// AmG//)

This is an interesting video. Adam does a good job explaining to the person from the 8 minute mark on how she has been lied to.

Had I conducted the interview I might have said "free market" rather than capitalism, since capitalism seems to have negative overtones and is usually associated with the evils of cronyism.

 

[Captain Red Eye]

Blast from the past.
Adam interviews a conservative, who gets a little uncomfortable realizing he sounds like a liberal to Adam.
