With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility

On February 20, 2013, in Opinion, by ConsiderLiberty

I’ve talked about firearms before, and the Second Amendment as well as the right to defend one’s self and one’s property.  Those points have all been well established.  Though it seems that some still do not believe this is enough of a reason to own a firearm.  Some seem to be under the impression that [...]

Never Let a Serious Crisis Go to Waste

On January 18, 2013, in Analysis, Opinion, by ConsiderLiberty

In the words of Rahm Emanuel, “You never let a serious crisis go to waste.”  That is exactly the philosophical approach some members of our government are taking in the shadow of the horrific tragedy that took place at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, CT. On Wednesday President Obama held a news conference to present his plan for [...]

The Declaration of 2012

On July 4, 2012, in Opinion, by ConsiderLiberty

I posted on this date last year to declare the need for a new American Revolution.  A lot has happened since then.  Must of what has transpired has been to the detriment of our cause and liberties.  This year it seems appropriate to call out the tyrants for their crimes, much as our nations Founders [...]

The Constitution is Not Dead (But it Isn’t Living Either)

On October 14, 2011, in Analysis, Opinion, by ConsiderLiberty

The United States – often recognized as a beacon of freedom to the world, though perhaps more so in the past than in the present.  The original colonists came here seeking a fresh start, a land of unrivaled opportunity, and a reprieve from the oppression of the British Crown.  Immigrants in more recent times come [...]

Occupy Wall Street is a Loose Cannon

On October 7, 2011, in Action Alert, Opinion, by ConsiderLiberty

When I wrote about the Occupy Wall Street movement a few weeks ago I had not really intended on it becoming a recurring topic, but as events transpire I find myself compelled to speak out further.  The movement has continued to gain momentum and has spread all over the country, and to various locations around [...]

The GOP Primary Debates – So Far

On September 30, 2011, in Opinion, by ConsiderLiberty

I have watched all the GOP debates up until this point and I plan to watch all future debates as well.  Though, I cannot say particularly that I look forward to them.  The debates so far have been biased, and rather worthless as far as highlighting the differences between candidates.  What they do highlight for [...]

Operation Occupy Wall Street

On September 23, 2011, in Action Alert, Opinion, by ConsiderLiberty

There is a protest taking place in New York City.  A rag-tag group of passionate citizens are making their voices heard regarding the economic mess taking place in our country, and the world.  The goal of the protest is simple; to occupy Wall St. for an extended period of time to draw attention to the [...]

The Stealth Attack on Your Money

On September 16, 2011, in Analysis, by ConsiderLiberty

One of primary reasons for the American Revolution was “taxation without representation”.  This is exactly what it sounds like.  The colonists did not want to be taxed unless they had a say in it, via a representative who could convey their interests to the Crown.  Today, we are in a similar situation.  Our modern taxation [...]
