Me & Mother Jones: Libertarian or Rapper?
Mother Jones has an article in their September/October issue challenging readers to guess whether one-line quotes (or antics) are from Rappers or from libertarians.
They used the first sentence of the last chapter of Lost Rights: “America needs fewer laws, not more prisons.”
When I wrote that book, I guessed that the above line would be the one most quoted from that chapter. Missed that one by a country mile…….
fyi - the first chapter of Lost Rights is available here.

Around here, most of the people packing Glocks are undercover cops.
One more sign that I need to move south of the Potomac…

You know, I’m seeing a whole different formatting for a Jim Bovard Audiobook here….think we could get Brian Wilson to apply his Dulcet Tones to the narration?

Sure as Hades - Brian could do a far better job than I could on that.
