State of Alabama: Libertarians are terrorists

ojc02 · #1 05-10-2007, 01:59 PM

Wow, just wow, this is absolutely incredible. According to Alabama's Homeland security terrorist information page - if you think the following things, there's a good chance you're a terrorist:

1. Are against gun control
2. Think the constitution has been subverted
3. Think the US has lost its sovereignty

I'm actually speechless. They're probably getting ready to arrest Ron Paul as a terrorist as we speak.

Check out the "anarchist" and "anti-government" links

This is wacky; jury nullification is indeed a right, and a very powerful one at that.

I'm sorry, maybe i'm being slow. Are you trying to say that libertarians are more likely to be terrorists than non-libertarians??

Is it not obvious that someone who holds the following views:

1. Are against gun control
2. Think the constitution has been subverted
3. Think the US has lost its sovereignty

is somewhat more likely (still extremely unlikely) to commit an act of domestic terrorism than someone who feels:

1. guns are bad
2. the country is running as the founding fathers planned
3. the US is sovereign

If you are

1. Male
2. Between the ages of 20 and 45
3. White

You are more likely to be a serial killer. Does this mean that most white males between the ages of 20 and 45 are serial killers?

This doesn't bode well for the Mises Institute in Auburn...

I guess profiling is only wrong when you fall into the profile. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Freely associating people can profile all they want when making market decisions. If someone doesn't want to trade with me because my last name starts with 'W' he is within his rights to do so. If he can still get along making a profit while maintaining this policy, so be it. If he kills or maims me because my last name starts with 'W' then he'll have to deal with my family (or me, or anyone else affected by his violent aggression).
