Where s the body count from shootings by police?

Future of Freedom Foundation
by James Bovard

12/04/13

Not only do government agencies fail to track official violence against Americans; they also sometimes preemptively exonerate all such attacks. A 2001 Justice Department report, 'Policing and Homicide, 1976?1998,' labeled everyone in the nation who perished as a result of a police shooting as 'felons justifiably killed by police.' There were hundreds, if not thousands, of people shot unjustifiably by the police in those decades, but their innocence vanished in the flicker of a federal label. The Justice Department was so embarrassed by the report s 'lack of distinction between justifiable police shootings and murders, that it did not send out its usual promotional material announcing the report,' according to the New York Times.

Future of Freedom Foundation
by Jacob G. Hornberger

11/21/13

Ever since 9/11 the president of the United States, together with the Pentagon and the CIA, has been wielding extraordinary emergency powers that historically have been wielded by the most powerful dictators in history. They include the power of the government to seize people, including Americans, cart them away to a military dungeon or concentration camp, torture them, keep them incarcerated indefinitely, and even execute them, perhaps after some sort of kangaroo military tribunal, all without judicial process to determine whether the person had done anything to warrant such treatment...

The national security state s childishly dangerous taunt against China

Future of Freedom Foundation
by Jacob G. Hornberger

11/27/13

It didn t take long for the U.S. national-security state s 'pivot' toward Asia, after its disastrous 12-year foray into the Middle East, to produce a new crisis for Americans. In response to China s decision to implement a new air zone involving a long territorial dispute with Japan over a group of islands, the U.S. military sent two B-52 bombers flying over the zone to test China s resolve, proving that China is just a 'paper tiger' given that it didn t shoot the planes out of the sky. It was a childishly dangerous taunt. What would have happened if China had shot down the planes?

Make your choice: Freedom or the national security state

Future of Freedom Foundation
by Jacob G. Hornberger

12/18/13

In his July 4, 1821, address to Congress John Quincy Adams pointed out that America does not go abroad 'in search of monsters to destroy.' His use of the term 'monsters' encompassed brutal and tyrannical foreign dictators. ...Today, the world continues to be filled with brutal and tyrannical dictators. However, there is now a big difference between the U.S. government of Adams? time and the U.S. government of our time. Unlike our 19th-century American ancestors, modern-day Americans live under a national-security state apparatus, one whose mission, practically from its inception in 1947, is to serve as the world s policeman, one who goes abroad in search of monsters to destroy.

Federal Reserve steals from the poor and gives to the rich

US Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) Campaign For Liberty

11/18/13

As recently as five years ago, it would have been unheard of for a Wall Street insider and former Fed official to speak so bluntly about how the Fed acts as a reverse Robin Hood. But a quick glance at the latest unemployment numbers shows that QE is not benefiting the average American. It is increasingly obvious that the Fed s post-2008 policies of bailouts, money printing, and bond buying benefited the big banks and the politically-connected investment firms. QE is such a blatant example of crony capitalism that it makes Solyndra look like a shining example of a pure free market!
