What is the best defense against violence? Most people would be tempted to answer, "more violence." Max Borders has an interesting take on this question. He says morality does more to stop violence than living in a Mad Max mentality does.
It's our weekly chat with automotive writer and defender of freedom Eric Peters from Eric Peters Autos.
When an idea is so good that it must be made mandatory, it's not really a good idea at all. This is especially true when it comes to "dealing with the unvaccinated" as if they're causing harm. Dr. Michael Accad gives a scholarly response to the question: Are the unvaccinated a threat to others?
Now that the 20th anniversary of 9/11 has come and gone, it's time for a no-nonsense evaluation of what we have learned over the past 20 years. Ron Paul doesn't bother sugar-coating his take: Twenty years on, we've learned nothing from 9/11.

The idea that the political class has leveraged fear over the Covid-19 pandemic into control over the public isn't just a conspiracy theory. Scott Morefield explains how this is evident to any person who recognizes that governments have lost the war against the virus.
The various mandates being forced upon us don't just violate our freedom of conscience and personal autonomy, they cross a number of ethical and moral lines as well. J.B. Shurk says medical experimentation and collective punishment are, in fact, war crimes.
If you're not familiar with the term "cargo cult science" it's one that should be added to your lexicon. James E. Hanley explains how superstition and pseudoscience have found their way into our scientific institutions.

Some people have begun to ask why we don't hear more about natural immunity as a factor in mitigating the spread of Covid. Jon Sanders explains how a stronger, more robust natural immunity thwarts any case for vaccine passports.
People who have trust issues with the official numbers of Covid cases and who question whether those numbers are being exaggerated to generate public fear aren't just being paranoid. A leaked Zoom call of health officials in North Carolina clearly shows a detailed discussion of how to report the numbers in a way that scares the public into obeying the various mandates and health directives.
By now it should be clear that anyone who wishes to retain his or her personal freedom, to any degree, must be willing to assert it. Allan Stevo says we need to get used to saying "Show me the writ" and asking to see and read the actual policies we are being told to obey. This is part of the heavy lifting required to be a free individual.
It's pretty hard to miss that everything is costing more. An executive for a major supermarket chain is warning that we're all about to really start feeling rising inflation when we shop for food. Might be a good time to stock up on essentials.

It sure felt like a gauntlet was thrown down when the president announced sweeping power grabs and how his "patience is running thin" for those who won't obey. Lots of people have responded to that speech but I found Thomas Luongo's recommendation to be particularly worthwhile. He says, just say no to Joe Biden's call for civil war.
The Mises Institute is hard to beat for a principled take on just about any issue. Their recent editorial against Biden's mandates is an accurate and concise explanation of the principles at stake. Know what you stand for. There are more than enough parrots out there.
When I'm trying to get a a solid assessment of what's taking place around us, there are a few minds that I've come to trust more than others. James R. Harrigan is one of those minds. He describes our situation of political brinksmanship as a subtle catastrophe in the making.

After Joe Biden's latest speech, it should be painfully clear to anyone who's paying attention that no politician, no candidate or bureaucrat at any level of government is coming to save you. You'll be free to the exact degree that you're willing to be defiant. Olivia Rondeau has a marvelous essay on the timeless tradition of non-compliance.
The folks in authority are pushing hard right now to consolidate their control over the masses. Kent McManigal serves up another excellent reminder that being against their vaccine mandates doesn't necessarily make one an "anti-vaxxer."
The battle raging around us is a battle of ideas. Because of this, words and meanings are more important than we might think. Isaac Morehouse warns that when definitions change, take heed.
Threatening 100 million Americans with the loss of their livelihoods, unless they obey the demands to get jabbed, is a pretty sporty move. Do you really believe that those who think they're in charge of our lives have our best interests in mind? Andrew W. Coy says we ought not live our lives in fear of a virus, in fact, he says let it find us doing the truly important things in life.
One thing is very clear, the unvaccinated have been declared fair game for the political class and their corporate enablers to demonize. Rick Fuentes has the details on our emerging Covid apartheid.
Here's something a little bit different. Clint Eastwood has been making movies for 7 decades now. Bryan Preston has a fascinating article about the incredible gamble Eastwood took in doing the so-called spaghetti Westerns more than 50 years ago. Clearly that gamble has paid off.
The narrative managers are conspicuously quiet about the story that broke earlier this week when a Freedom of Information Act request brought out the reality that gain of function research was being funded, in part, by the U.S. government in the Wuhan lab. Paul Rosenberg notes that this confirms the awful truth that Covid is a frankenvirus and it isn't going away.

When it comes to accurately and dispassionately documenting the mass psychosis that has taken hold in our society, it's hard to beat the Academy of Ideas and their videos. If you've ever pondered how to escape from a sick society, their latest video is well worth your time.
Your ability to think and speak freely is not something that can be taken for granted. Nick Gillespie has a lengthy but highly informative essay on self-cancellation, deplatforming and censorship that defenders of free speech will appreciate.
Here's another sign of the times, as if you needed one. Just when you thought that the abortion issue couldn't get more controversial, various advocacy groups are now stepping forward, following the passage of a strict anti-abortion law in Texas, to insist that abortion isn't just for women anymore.
If you find yourself growing weary of the never-ending mandates and expansions of government power in response to the Covid pandemic, it's not an accident. Those in authority aren't even trying to convince us any longer, they're just trying to wear us down. Ron Paul says, the real pandemic that threatens us is authoritarianism--not a virus.

We're fast approaching the point where a person would be far better off to abstain from most media (mass and social) than to attempt to remain "informed" by the narrative managers of the chattering class. Boyd Cathey has a marvelous column about why we don't trust the media and why we are right not to.
On a related note, it's very common to hear media talking heads going back and forth over issues like vaccine hesitancy. They just can't seem to fathom why the public won't take their word on such life or death matters. Konstantin Kisin has a pretty compelling explanation for the media types who are asking themselves: Why won't they believe us?

A lot of what Hollywood produces is intended to be a mindless escape and distraction from the real world. But once in a while, something worthwhile makes it though. Jon Miltimore says the Paw Patrol movie is surprisingly libertarian in it's storyline--especially for a kid's movie.
With students returning to college campuses, there are plenty of convocation speeches being given to start their new school year. Alexander Riley has some very solid advice that he'd love to share with the incoming classes of students this year. He calls it the convocation address you will never hear delivered.
Like it or not, you and I are living through some remarkable and likely historic times. None of us have aspired to be standing at this crossroads, yet here we are. J.B. Shurk has a powerful message for anyone who recognizes the significance of what we are facing. He also has some advice on how to tell what government fears the most.
At the risk of sounding hypocritical, especially as someone who recently moved to Idaho, there's an attitude among many that "If it gets bad, I'll just move to Idaho." Jeff Thomas has some interesting historical perspective of the last major migration that was driven by economic hardship. He also warns that preparing for the coming economic crisis has to be done before the crisis hits.

Yesterday I spent a fair amount of time on the Fourth Turning model of cycles of history. Here's an excellent follow up column from Jim Quinn that provides some deeper insights into how our current turning is shaking out. Because it has proven so essential to consolidating and maintaining power over the masses, Quinn warns that this war on Covid will never end.
Labor Day has come and gone and, aside from a 3 day weekend, few people would say that they celebrated anything at all. John Barry has an worthwhile suggestion, why not celebrate Free Enterprise Day? After all, the things that have most improved our standards of living are the result of entrepreneurs who were willing to take risks.
