About Me

In writing the "About Me" portion of this blog I thought about the purpose of the blog - namely, preventing the growth of Socialism & stopping the Death Of Democracy in the American Republic & returning her to the "liberty to abundance" stage of our history. One word descriptions of people's philosophies or purposes are quite often inadequate. I feel that I am "liberal" meaning that I am broad minded, independent, generous, hospitable, & magnanimous. Under these terms "liberal" is a perfectly good word that has been corrupted over the years to mean the person is a left-winger or as Mark Levin more accurately wrote in his book "Liberty & Tyranny" a "statist" - someone looking for government or state control of society. I am certainly not that & have dedicated the blog to fighting this. I believe that I find what I am when I consider whether or not I am a "conservative" & specifically when I ask what is it that I am trying to conserve? It is the libertarian principles that America was founded upon & originally followed. That is the Return To Excellence that this blog is named for & is all about.

Aggressive Response - Saving Fingers & Eyes

The original subject message brought many responses most of which said they would pass the "bottle bomb" information on to their local police department - which was one of the recommended defensive steps to take. 
 
Below is a more aggressive idea from one of our most libertarian members.
 
---Aggressive Response To Saving Fingers & Eyes---
 
I've just sent this to a long list of friends.  I had no idea.  Thank you.

If I were running a sleeper cell in the U.S., I'd start by doing this sort of thing -- not merely to train budding terrorists to handle explosives carefully and to wreak havoc, but also to test the ability of police to investigate this sort of thing, and to learn how lenient our justice system would be, should anyone be caught.  (Can't you already hear the "He's just a young man who made a foolish choice" and "it was just a prank" defense, and envision some judge sentencing the person to community service or a few months in jail?)

This crime should be classified as terrorism (this may mean prosecution in federal court -- I don't know the law).  It should also carry a stiff sentence, with mandatory prosecution as adults juveniles age 15 or over.
