"This is where market anarchists have something to offer. We have proposals for organizing people to provide collective mutual defense. Google polycentric law, defense agencies and/or Robert Murphy's Chaos Theory, which is available free in PDF form and has a chapter on private law."

"Mutualism makes sense to me because it is a harmony of respect for the individual while fostering community. It recognizes the importance of free exchange while also admitting that large accumulations of absentee capital are unacceptable."

"Great idea! I read 10 oz of gold and was about to buy my plane ticket so you might want to put a space between the 1 and OZ there. :D"

"“So they want to establish a safety zone of fifty feet.” You can not concede to the government their choice of words, especially not when the media put their megaphone up to your mouth. It's not a "safety zone." They want to restrict your freedom of movement inside of Keene without any actionable cause. Something like that. "Safety zone" is adeptly-chosen government propaganda and for you to repeat it to the media is to implicitly concede the government claim in front of the public that Robin Hooders present a threat to the safety of the parking enforcement people, and that's simply false. You did yourself a disservice there. From afar I have noticed that the forces arrayed against you guys often convict people by association. Robin Hood is associated with Free Keene even according to this UL article and so, bam, all the people who have been put off by Free Keene now know to be equally put off by Robin Hood. You might want to look at putting more digital, if not real space between..."

"I don't know. I handed it personally to Mike B. at the moment that I came back to my car and realized they'd saved me. Hopefully whoever is doing Robin-Hooding in Keene these days will post with donation information. Or they might prefer you use it as seed capital for your new Robin-Hood operation. Kudos!"

"I went one better. I made a cash donation of $10! And I'm certain they used it to save other people some of whom in turn also donated to them so they could ... Well, you get the idea."

"The article suggests he's an arms distributor but that's not remotely true. He's only making a blueprint available. He's not distributing actual arms, just blueprints."

"There is no point in fretting over labels. You already have your own unique one anyway: "Corey Moore." Focus on actions and build your own personal brand/label. That's a million times more effective than fretting over labels. In the final analysis, we are all, after all, individuals."

"Kudos Corey. At the same time, it makes no sense to hate, no matter who or what you hate. When I hate, the first person to be damaged by it is me. Pay no mind to the cacophony around you. Stay true and keep on truckin'. Have a great day. :D"

"A suggestion. Tell people how long the video is so one can decide to watch it now or later. I wasn't able to find how long the video was just by looking at it. Thanks!"

"Looks like I might be your first customer. Some suggestions: don't link the address in the email. IOW, just put it in as text. the link made it harder for me to copy. use some javascript or something to make it easy to copy the btc address on the site. the textarea for the description in the ordering process on the website, the text does not wrap for me in FF 16 on Mac. for the image upload in the ordering process, maybe suggest right there some images that could be uploaded there - as having the option to upload so much stuff was unexpected. Otherwise, great. Kudos. I like the idea and I wish you luck with it. :) PS: Send emails from an address your customers can reply to! As a business owner you want more communication with your customers, not less."

"Of course I can blame them! They violated their oaths, to start with. Without the fear, the effectiveness of future terrorist attacks drops near to zero. Their motivation for carrying them out is reduced."

"Oxford says an article is "a piece of writing included with others in a newspaper, magazine, or other publication." And this blog is a publication! Have a great day."
- George Donnelly
"That's not necessarily correct. In order for a person to enter into an urban area, into a business district and/or into a sporting event, they will likely not only have to have personal insurance but they will also have to agree to a contract (think the contract on the back of parking lot stubs). This contract and/or his insurance policy will likely authorize the authority or insurance company he made the contract with to hunt him down and bring him into custody using normal criminological procedures."
- George Donnelly
"Great question. At the same time, it will strain the credulity of the average statist to claim that libertarianism eliminates terrorism. Also, the absence of a state doesn't mean there won't be political disputes."
- George Donnelly
"Multiple mainstream media outlets reported with abundant photographic evidence that Boston was a ghost town last Friday. For example: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/..."

"Yes, politely requested over a loudspeaker from a humvee where there was a man with a machine in a turret and a dozen paramilitary buddies similarly armed barking orders, um *requests*, to them. Sure thing."
- George Donnelly
"It had nothing to do with 9,000 paramilitary troops armed with machine guns, ordering people out of their homes with their hands up, telling videographers to stop filming, pointing weapons at people looking out of the windows of their own homes. Right. Libertarianism is about equality, peace and honesty. Those may be extreme ideas to you, but they're run-of-the-mill for me."
- George Donnelly
"You have misunderstood something I wrote. I do not suggest vigilante justice, except in only the extremest cases (such as on an airplane in flight). I only suggest that the average joe can continue to serve more effectively in a lookout role than 9,000 paramilitaries in humvees. This suggestion is supported by the reality of the Boston Lockdown."
- George Donnelly
"You are quite simply incorrect about the number of people affected. The evidence is in the article. I even saw mainstream media estimating that 2 to 5 million people stayed home from work that day."
- George Donnelly
"Either you didn't comprehend what I wrote or you don't know what happened in Boston. Like I said, I don't think that 9,000 paramilitary cops were roaming the streets to enforce the stay off the roads suggestion and definitely not doing house to house searches."
