Statism is Slavery: All aggression is violence, but not all violence is aggression. Discuss. -Ray

Rayn: To me, all violence is a form of aggression, by definition, so my distinction between its types would be those acts based upon the initiation of violence, and those acts of self-defense. With this, a third, more grey area emerges: those acts based on an unequal, cruel or unusual response to the initiation of violence. And, though this third category would likely be the least-occurring form of violence, it would be where the most divergence of opinion would reside… at least, among those of us who understand self-defense to be a natural right, that is! 🙂

This Homeless USMC Vet Got to Experience the Rising American Police State First Hand:

(Matt Agorist) The hot air and lip service paid to veterans by the blowhards in D.C., seems to be just that, hot air and lip service. Nearly 60,000 men and woman who’ve served their country are homeless and being persecuted by the same system they pledged to maintain.

A video submitted to The Free Thought Project Friday by homeless veteran Aaron Colyer, shows the repugnant reality that is the American Police State.

Colyer, a 4 year veteran of the USMC and Army National Gaurd, tells The Free Thought Project his recount of America’s new war on the right to exist.

My Commentary: Keep dutifully paying your “fair share” of taxes, America. 😉 This way, the State can continue hiring mercenaries in your behalf to harass and ticket the homeless! And, by extorting the destitute for cash they don’t have, these vulnerable members of society will be forced to either go into hiding or to relocate, otherwise they will eventually face jail time for failure to pay the State’s “victimless ‘crime’ extortion fee” (AKA “a fine”)!

Problem solved! 🙂

How very forward-thinking and progressive! Bravo, America!

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following quote here, being shared by the page, “Liberty Rant,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

Liberty Rant: “Politics is the art of making your selfish desires seem like the national interest.” – Thomas Sowell

My Commentary: Exposed!

Latest Gazan Fatalities, according to United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), as reported by their Facebook page, here…

According to the latest figures from the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), Israeli military forces have killed an estimated 789 Gazans since their July 7th launch of Operation “Protective Edge.” About 73% of this total represents civilian casualties. In other words, approximately 578 civilians have been murdered by Israel’s government so far, with about 185 of that total being children, and 93 being women, which together represent 48% of all civilian deaths…

These numbers reveal that the world’s “Most Moral Army” has snuffed out the lives of more children than it has killed Hamas “militants” in its latest war adventures inside Gaza! Gazan youths represent one quarter of the Israeli governments total killings, and one third of their total civilian murder victims!

Israel’s government is executing a full-scale massacre of purely cowardly proportions – to the welcoming cheers of celebrating Israeli audiences, in some cases!
