Venezuela Bans Lines Outside of Bakeries that Spread “Anxiety”:
https://panampost.com/sabrina-martin/2016/08/19/venezuela-bans-lines-outside-of-bakeries-that-spread-anxiety/

(Sabrina Martín) The Venezuelan government has announced it will be fining bakeries that make people stand in lines to buy bread.

The National Superintendency of Fair Prices noted this measure is intended to “dismantle the strategy of generating anxiety” in Venezuelans, as the lines are more of a political decision than they are a reflection of a lack of raw materials.

My Commentary: That’s one way to stop the bread lines so common to socialism…

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

"I will act violently on peaceful people to acquire... Total Socialism: energy, clothing, housing, food Modern Liberalism: universal healthcare Modern Conservatism: unemployment insurance, retirement insurance, limited healthcare (for seniors and poor), limited housing, food, energy (for the poor - 'safety net'), education Classical Liberalism: fire protection, roads Minarchism: police, military, courts Anarchy: I'm not willing to act violently on peaceful people. I will seek to acquire desired services without aggression through voluntary relationships."

“I will act violently on peaceful people to acquire…
Total Socialism: energy, clothing, housing, food
Modern Liberalism: universal healthcare
Modern Conservatism: unemployment insurance, retirement insurance, limited healthcare (for seniors and poor), limited housing, food, energy (for the poor – ‘safety net’), education
Classical Liberalism: fire protection, roads
Minarchism: police, military, courts
Anarchy: I’m not willing to act violently on peaceful people. I will seek to acquire desired services without aggression through voluntary relationships.”

My Commentary: 50 Shades of Tyranny. Enter through the narrow gate, and embrace the Law of Liberty.

V is For Voluntary: And the only person to call Congress a bunch of authoritarian psychopaths to their faces! Happy Birthday, Ron Paul! ???

Spends it trolling the Fed: http://bit.ly/2bCxTlC

"Happy 81st Birthday, Dr. Ron Paul! -Never compromised beliefs -Never voted to raise taxes -Opposed every bailout -Woke up millions -Anti-war for life -Opposed war on drugs -Fought to end the Fed -Delivered 4,000 babies -Author of six books -US Air Force veteran"

“Happy 81st Birthday, Dr. Ron Paul!
-Never compromised beliefs
-Never voted to raise taxes
-Opposed every bailout
-Woke up millions
-Anti-war for life
-Opposed war on drugs
-Fought to end the Fed
-Delivered 4,000 babies
-Author of six books
-US Air Force veteran”

My Commentary: To correct the commentary by the original post, Paul technically called Congress “psychopathic authoritarians” right to their faces. Also, he was, in fact, referring to ALL of those who “endorse government initiated force to change the world,” – a reference to all of the DemoRepubliCrackpots out there who support the “War on Terror” and the “War on Drugs”.

Chicago Cops Using State Law to Kill then Charging Innocent People for Murder They Committed:
http://thefreethoughtproject.com/chicago-cops-state-law-kill/

An investigation into 10 recent Chicago criminal cases unearthed the extraordinary reach of the state’s “felony murder rule,” which is being used to cover up police crime, as well as prosecute and incarcerate the innocent, according to a report.

“Among the ten recent felony murder cases…three stem from police officers firing at fleeing vehicles in apparent violation of the department’s ‘deadly force’ policy, which since February 2015 has forbidden the practice,”according to findings by the Chicago Reader.

The revelation came while investigating the case of Tevin Louis, who was charged and convicted of the murder of his friend, Marquise Sampson, even though Sampson was fatally shot by police on Chicago’s South Side.

My Commentary: What if police just start calling their reckless murders of innocent bystanders and car passengers in their pursuit of suspects “collateral damage”? Will Americans start defending their actions? Or, is this practice only acceptable when the US military uses it as a label for the thousands of dead Iraqis, Afghanis, Pakistanis, Libyans, Yemenis, Somalians, and Syrians they’ve murdered in our name, and using our tax dollarsl? #InnocentLivesMatter
