You know it's a deceitful time when exploitative mainstream media stations have the nerve to suggest that (our) 'rhetoric' need be turned down, moments after reporting the most gruesome and bloody details of what everybody knows to be by now as nothing short of a cold-blooded massacre in Tucson involving Mrs. Giffords.

Now that the [false] left-right paradigm got a much undesirable 'shot in the arm', as evidenced by vicious online finger pointing, it's clear which principles and values remain untarnished: those which promote and advance the philosophy of liberty---for everyone.

This philosophy is simple: I have a right to my life and property, as do you. I shouldn't initiate force or fraud upon your life or property, and I expect the same in return. In the event force is initiated against me, I have an intrinsic right to defend myself with an appropriate amount of equal force.

So while the media blabs on asking calorie-free questions about scary, "anti-government" people, I prefer the following two talking points instead.

1. If everyone subscribed to the philosophy of liberty, where's room for government?

2. Does our government subscribe to the philosophy of liberty in its current capacity?

There's no need for liberty activists to condemn what was never sanctioned. Standing on the principle of non-aggression ---the integral component of the philosophy of liberty--- is the answer for all involve,

Especially the government.
