In my post about the idiotic over-reaction to a New Jersey 10-year-old posing with his new squirrel rifle , Dana Garrett left me this response: One waits, apparently in vain, for you to post the annual rates of children who either shoot themselves or someone else with a gun. But then you Libertarians are notoriously ambivalent to and silent about data and facts and would rather talk abstract principles and fear monger (like the government will confiscate your guns). It doesn't require any degree of subtlety to see why you are data and fact adverse. The facts indicate we have a crisis with gun violence and accidents in the USA, and Libertarians offer nothing credible to address it. Lives, even the lives of children, get sacrificed to the fetishism of liberty. That's intellectual cowardice. OK, Dana, let's talk facts. According to the Children's Defense Fund , which is itself only querying the CDCP data base, fewer than 10 children/teens were killed per year in Delaw

"President Barack Obama has the legal authority to unleash deadly force—such as drone strikes—against Americans ----on U.S. soil--- without first putting them on trial, Attorney General Eric Holder wrote in a letter released Tuesday."

You better keep your phone locked.
I don't censor people. I cut off trolls, You are a troll.
How is that different from big government? Simple: I own this blog. I make the rules because it is my property.
You have no inherent right to speak here, especially when you are not trying to communicate, but are trying to destroy.
Don't like it? Go start your own blog and see if you can attract an audience.
You've got as much "right" to post here as anyone--which is to say whatever rights I give you. This blog is private property, and if you were actually a Libertarian you'd know that means I have the absolute right to do any damn thing I like with your comments.
Want me to leave your comments up? Then post something that has something to do with the post you are commenting on, and stop posting crap about other people that has nothing to do with them.
Otherwise go the hell away or quit whining. Your choice--just remember--when you piss me off it takes less time to delete them than it does for you to write them.
Sounds like someone didn't pass basic civics ...

By the way, you are done for the evening here.
