But what will Aycharych write about? drugs.

True freedom, something very few seem to understand.

The freedom which all liberals recognize in the abortion debate, the freedom to do with your own body as you please..

I never said an unkind word to you and yet you called me a creep.

Insults are the last refuge of those who have nothing substantive to say.

Paul Dirks..

To the degree its couched with "I dare you to answer" then it seems design to pick a fight and derail the thread.

I'm not trying to pick a fight, it's the only way I can get people to answer.

Go back and read my previous posts.. I've posted on topic on this thread.

You agree with me that voting for a candidate who supports the drug way is helping the slide to fascism in this country, and yet you will vote for them anyway.

Talk about the lesser of two evils.

I predict that Aycharaych will incessantly try to bait people into pointless arguments.

Hmm.. You consider freedom to be pointless?

And, of course, we can't have that -- not, at least, until we're finally forced to call all of our assumptions into question. Jefferson would have understood this;

Thank you for getting my point and putting it better than I seem to be able to.

Questioning assumptions is a necessity if one is truly to induce change.

I predict Aycharaych will demand that everyone drop whatever they're doing and immediately respond to his posts.

I haven't "demanded" anything, if you think I have then please provide quotes.

And yes, those who support the drug war do indeed hate freedom.

Original article: Tale of a teenage terrorist

I'm a person who wonders about many things..

I wonder if the tables were turned and it was Iraqi troops occupying America..

Would an American teenager engaging in exactly the same behavior as Diyala be seen by his fellow Americans as a terrorist or a hero?

Anyone remember the movie _Red Dawn_?

Perspective is a funny thing, eh?

Paul Dirks..

The answer of course is because there are millions of Americans who actually care about this issue deeply and are willing to reward people for addressing it.

There are other issues that millions care about deeply that are also not being addressed.

The entire telecom issue is about unwarranted government intrusion into private lives.

I'm hoping that Ron Paul shakes the establishment to its very core.
