The Freedom Outlaw's Handbook

Here's a review of a book that will be sure to land you in the FBI's files now that the PATRIOT Act allows them to track what you're reading.

Our Declaration of Independence declares that it is self-evident that we are born free, but nearly everyone, especially those who suffer through our public educational institutions, seems blissfully unaware. No one is born with more rights than anyone else: this is the premise underlying all of our government's "legitimacy." The Declaration says that if government fails to provide conditions for people to pursue happiness in their own ways, the people have a right "to alter or abolish it."

Andy von Sonn, a former linebacker for the Los Angeles Rams, is an attorney in Hawaii.


Claire Wolfe uses the label "outlaw" to describe those who take the Declaration as gospel and try to live by it. An outlaw is someone who disobeys an unjust or invasive edict, someone whose personal morality and belief in his sacred right to be free supersedes the rule of government.

The American people, rather than being infused with an understanding of what individual freedom means, are indoctrinated from childhood to the grave to pledge allegiance to a flag รข€” the ultimate golden calf, the false idol.

As the rest of the world knows....when an American speaks about freedom, he doesn't really mean it.

He doesn't even understand it.
