Cats and Dogs
by L. Neil Smith
Attribute to L. Neil Smith’s The Libertarian Enterprise
*** begin quote ***
I find it endlessly fascinating that with one exception, history’s dictators have always hated cats, who, as independent creatures and nature’s libertarians, are not the best pet for someone who thinks he owns everybody else’s lives. Some individuals appear to resent their independence. For me, it’s the main characteristic that makes cats attractive.
The exception (I’ve pondered over this like a puzzle, for years) was Vladimir Ilich Lenin, who made a point of being photographed with his cat (I have its name around here somewhere) on more than one occasion.
It may not tell the whole story—nothing does—but the next time you wonder about a politician, or a potential employee or boss, or even that redhead you find intriguing, find out how they feel about cats. Come to think of it, I wonder where Obama, Romney, and Ron Paul stand.
It may tell you how they feel about individual liberty.
*** end quote ***
Hmm, one of my co-workers rescues dogs and has four.
Wonder what that says about her.
Maybe I should get a cat?
Hmmm!
Seems like there’s a Big Bang episode that covers that.

Instead of focusing on the average joe who has a beer with dinner, this is the problem! 4 DUIs. Why is he out of jail?
Of course, then the problem would be solved and no need for “checkpoints” as revenue raising.

CHIEF RAYMOND J. HAYDUCKAAdvisory: Cops catch drunk driver after near collision and chase
Hi fjohn reinke,
A drunk driver, who had been convicted four times previously for driving while under the influence, was arrested Saturday morning after nearly striking a police car and leading officers on a chase. The incident began at 1:30am as Sergeant Frank Lombardo was driving east on Route 522. William Campbell age 52 of Franklin Park was operating his 1994 Ford pickup truck south on North Umberland Way. He entered the intersection of Route 522 without stopping and nearly ran into Sergeant Lombardo’s marked patrol car. The sergeant had to slam on his brakes to avoid a collision.
The sergeant then activated his lights and siren attempting to stop the vehicle. The pickup truck accelerated and struck two curbs as it winded through the South Ridge Townhomes development. Campbell then pulled onto New Road and headed east. He turned off of New Road into a commerical development accelerating behind some buildings. Sergeant Lombardo pursued him behind the buildings where Campbell made a U-turn and came back at the officer. Sergeant Lombardo was able to get his vehicle out of the way as Campbell pulled pass. Campbell then pulled up to the rear of one of the commercial buildings and parked his vehicle. He stumbled out of the driver’s seat without explanation. Sergeant Lombardo was able to arrest Campbell without further incident.
Campbell, who in addition to four driving while under the influence convictions has ten license suspensions, was charged with driving while under the influence and eluding. He was transported to police headquarters and processed. His bail was set at $25,000. He was lodged in the Middlesex County Correction Center in default of bail.

FROM HR SUE:
Sven and Ole
Two Minnesota engineers were standing at the base of a flagpole, looking up.
A woman walks by asks what they were doing.
“Ve’re supposed to find da height of dis flagpole, ” said Sven, “but
ve don’t haff a ladder.”
The woman took a wrench from her purse, loosened a couple bolts, and
laid the pole down on the ground.
Then she took a tape measure from her pocketbook, took a measurement,
announced, “Twenty one feet, six inches,” and walked away.
Ole shook his head and laughed. “Ain’t dat just like a voman! Ve ask
fer da height and she gives us da length!”

Obama and His Pot-Smoking ‘Choom Gang’
*** begin quote ***
Unlike Bill Clinton, Barack Obama never tried to say he didn’t inhale.
In his 1995 memoir “Dreams of My Father,” Obama writes about smoking pot almost like Dr. Seuss wrote about eating green eggs and ham. As a high school kid, Obama wrote, he would smoke “in a white classmate’s sparkling new van,” he would smoke “in the dorm room of some brother” and he would smoke “on the beach with a couple of Hawaiian kids.”
*** end quote ***
Now that we have a pot head as Prez …
… as a little L libertarian, I’ve always thought that our “drug policy”, “(pseudo) War on (some) Drugs”, was a best “misguided”, at worst “corrupt”. We have too many examples, anecdotal evidence, of pot not being as “bad” as booze, of high achievers who “inhaled” …
Don’t you think we could have a national dialogue about “drugs”, “drug policy”, and factual evidence?
We have mj prohibition because of hemp’s competition with the politically connected paper industry.
We have mj prohibition because of Hollywood’s “reefer madness” propaganda.
We have mj prohibition because of its association with the black community.
We have arguably ¼ of the federal prison population due to mj.
We have sick people, who need it and have no alternative for them. Not an effective alternative. Never mind a cheap alternative.
Ignore that not everyone who has a medical mj RX needs it. There are folks who legitimately need it (i.e., AIDS, chemotherapy patients, glaucoma).
Since the Chinese dynasty, there has been a residual addiction rate. Regardless if addicts were sentenced to death in China. Dealers were imprisoned for long stretches in Southeast Asia. No “public policy” makes a dent in the problem.
If the Gooferment can’t keep “drugs” out of its prisons, then perhaps we need a better strategy?
Walmart and Walgreens seem to be able to restrict access to stuff from minors.
So, why can’t we shift from the “punishment” meme that is immoral, ineffective, and inefficient to a “treatment” meme.
How much worse could we do?

Breaching the Wall
*** begin quote ***
I’m starting to entertain the thought that a litmus test for bad guys versus good guys is that the former want to limit religion by arbitrary state redefinition, the latter to limit government to the terms of the Constitution.
I’ve been concerned with religious freedom pretty keenly since well before I set foot in law school, and I know that this issue is one where, whatever his other defects, Romney stands in stark contrast to Obama and his administration. “We’re all Catholics now.”
*** end quote ***
I think that he’s hit the nail on the head.
Limit Gooferments; not people!
