The Pamphleteer

During colonial times in America, if you wanted to convince or inform people about some issue that you considered important, you went to the local printer and got some pamphlets printed. You then handed them out, read them to anybody that was interested, nailed them to the town bulletin board, or the nearest tree. The first amendment was specifically written to protect this type of activity and the writers or "pamphleteers".

Comment of the Day


(Posted on The Nation of Riflemen.)

Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its
victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under
robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber
baronÂ’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be
satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us
without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
- C.S. Lewis
