Scott Horton — Thu, 14 Apr 2011 05:56:14 +0000

Anthony Gregory, Editor in Chief of Campaign for Liberty, discusses the case for anarcho-capitalism – pushing beyond “limited government” to eliminate the last vestiges of “essential” state functions like police, courts and national defense; the possible market alternatives that, while theoretical and uncertain, could only be an improvement on state-run institutions; the disastrous war on drugs that has failed to reduce crime or eliminate drug use – but has boosted and militarized the ranks of law enforcement; and Anthony’s 2006 article, “Law-Enforcement Socialism.”

Pete Eyre and Adam Mueller, voluntaryist activists and co-founders of Liberty on Tour, discuss their cross country travels promoting liberty and a voluntary society, Pete’s exposé on the 1985 Philadelphia police crackdown on the MOVE organization, Philly cops using military weapons borrowed from the FBI including machine guns and high explosives and how the fire and police chiefs allowed the fire on the MOVE house (caused from a police-thrown C-4 bomb) to continue until it burned down half the block.

Pete Eyre is a voluntaryist activist. After studying law enforcement, he interned at the Cato Institute in foreign policy and defense in the spring of ’05, then that summer was a Koch Fellow at the Drug Policy Alliance. For the next 2 1/2 years Pete worked at the Institute for Humane Studies, last serving as the director of the Campus Outreach program. He next spent just over a year at Bureaucrash where he worked to connect liberty-oriented activists, a position he left after co-founding the Motorhome Diaries in early 2009. When that project wrapped up he worked as an outreach consultant for the Future of Freedom Foundation and spent time in Keene as part of the Free State Project prior to hitting the road with Liberty On Tour.

Adam Mueller is a voluntaryist activist who, through Cop Block, exposes the aggression committed by the government’s armed thugs for what it is. Mueller was born and raised in Wisconsin but recently relocated to New Hampshire; looking to settle near Keene, NH next spring. In late 2001 Adam was arrested for conspiracy to distribute marijuana. It was a challenging time in his life and not only cost him friends but many of his liberties. Since then Adam has been increasingly active in the liberty movement, primarily advocating a voluntary society.
