The narrative of division—whether based on race, religion, class, or something else—is actually strengthened when we attempt to silence opinions we find offensive or erroneous.

Anti-Gun Bigotry Will Not Prevent It
Another “gun free zone”; another mass murder. Enough is enough. Yet, the anti-gun activists will blame people who didn’t do it (they already are) for the acts of a couple of evil losers who did. It’s the same old story every time.

Scott Adams on Guns
It is in every decent person’s self-interest to encourage gun ownership for everyone. Even if I go crazy and try to kill an innocent person, and they shoot me in self-defense, I completely support their right to do so. Maybe knowing they are armed would help keep me sane, or scare me into not attacking them even if I go nuts.
The Lies of Anti-Gun Bigots
Lies are all they have. Recently I saw an old “article” by some bigot who said there were some truths that gun rights supporters would never talk about. Then he started lying.
Cakes, Guns, Discrimination, and Freedom of Association
Boycott (and “buycott”) reinforce “bad” (and “good”) behavior. I personally hope and expect that Dick’s and Walmart will pay a price for their decision to discriminate against would-be gun purchasers and against 18- to 21-year-olds, and that non-bigoted businesses will profit. And please, politicians: Stop grandstanding, get out of the way, and let the people sort these matters out for ourselves.
Liberate Migration
It is long past time for sane people to recognize that immigration laws, borne of racism and bigotry and the fake science of eugenics, are bad laws; they are not respectable laws at all.
Hans-Hermann is Lying
Sorry Hans, but if you are advocating something which violates the ZAP, you are not a “real libertarian” by definition no matter what sort of name calling you engage in. No matter what you believe your “study” has shown you. If your advocated violation hinges on allowing (employees of) the State to violate the ZAP then you are lying and advocating statism.
