First they came for the VFW, then they will come for You!

Having lived with a libertarian for a couple of years, I came to realize that classic liberalism is not the answer to everything. I even adopted some of the states rights views that libertarianism holds dear to its heart. Let us not forget that this great country of ours was founded by a Union of States, and not by the Federal government. Once and a while I would pick up my room mate's Reason magazine, and find myself agreeing with some of the stuff they were saying. Non-interventionist foreign policy, small federal government, and states rights issues. This was all the good stuff our founding fathers loved, minus the whole slavery part. Anyway, I like to hit up Reason's blog, and they also have this project with Drew Carey, where he talks about these issues anecdotally. Watch below, and if you think the actions of the Dallas police department were unjustified, maybe you have a little libertarian living inside of you!
