"There is no Silver Bullet"
You may or may not know of Ammon Bundy, but this statement is one of the best I've ever read. There is no silver bullet to protecting freedom. It is up to the People.

- 2Posted by LibertyBelle 2 years, 2 months agoI do not say it is a Silver Bullet, but the closest thing to it is to try to convert to people in the country to Objecivism, by persuasion. it will take a long time. If you have children,(as I have not), please try to get them to think rationally. I do not mean teach them to memorize and recite lines from Galt's speech in Atlas Shrugged, treating them as if they were articles of faith. I mean to show them that A is A, and 2+2=4, no matter what anybody says. (Not simply to repeat even these lines, but to know that a fact is a fact, no matter what anybody says.)Permalink|
