Hornberger’s Video Tidbit: Challenging Foreign Interventionism by Future of Freedom Foundation July 5, 2016
When Did America’s Obsession with Islam Begin? by Jacob G. Hornberger July 1, 2016 Discussions and debate about Islam are all over America. Islam is not only a central issue in the presidential race, it is also the subject of endless discussions within the mainstream media, the educational establishment, and, of course, the Internet. Debates rage over such issues as: Are all Muslims dangerous or just radical Muslims? Is America in danger of replacing ...
Hating Turkey for Its Freedom and Values? by Jacob G. Hornberger June 30, 2016 Those who blame anti-American terrorism on radical Islam, the Koran, the quest for a worldwide caliphate, regular Muslims, or hatred for America’s freedom and values are a bit stymied by the recent terrorist attack in Istanbul, Turkey. They just don’t know what to say. Why? Because over 90 percent of Turkey is Muslim! Obviously that puts the Islam-Koran-Muslims-caliphate crowd into a ...
Federal Drug Enforcement Tyranny in Colorado and Washington by Jacob G. Hornberger June 29, 2016 Although Colorado and Washington have legalized the sale and possession of marijuana for recreational purposes, possession and distribution of the drug remain a crime under federal law. However, the U.S. government, including the DEA, has been exempting the residents of those two states from federal drug law enforcement. That is obviously a good thing for people selling or consuming marijuana in ...
The U.S. National-Security State’s Murder of Victor Jara by Jacob G. Hornberger June 28, 2016 Prescript: (1) George Leef has a great article on gun control and the Second Amendment, which cites my recent blog post How They Could Confiscate Your AR-15. His article, which is entitled “Law Professor Demands Repeal of ‘Outdated’ Second Amendment, Makes Very Weak Case,” is really worth reading. (2) At LewRockwell.com, in an interesting blog post entitled “Hollywoodism,” ...
America Should Exit From NATO and the National Security State by Jacob G. Hornberger June 27, 2016 In its reporting on Brexit, the New York Times asks an interesting question: “Is the post-1945 order imposed on the world by the United States and its allies unraveling, too?” Hopefully, it will mean the unraveling of two of the most powerful and destructive governmental apparatuses that came out of the postwar era: NATO and the U.S. national-security state. ...
Freedom Is Dangerous by Jacob G. Hornberger June 24, 2016 In the ideal world of those Americans who oppose the libertarian concept of open borders, there would be a 50-foot wall all around America, manned and patrolled by an enormous army of well-armed military troops prepared to do whatever is necessary to prevent any foreigner from getting through. Additionally, in their minds they envision a federal planning agency that ...
How They Could Confiscate Your AR-15 by Jacob G. Hornberger June 23, 2016 Anyone who thinks it would be difficult for U.S. officials to confiscate people’s AR-15s and other semi-automatic weapons forgets how they confiscated everyone’s gold coins in the 1930s. It would be as easy to confiscate guns as it was to confiscate gold coins. To get people’s gold coins, they didn’t send swarms of federal agents across the land to conduct ...
