Ruwart defeats Ron Paul

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEkd_xhIBak

Author Mary Ruwart, PhD, has just defeated the biggest name in pro-freedom politics.  But don't worry, Ron Paul won't be leaving
office anytime soon - only his publication has been bested.   Dr. Ruwart's "Healing Our World" has narrowly vanquished Dr. Paul
bestseller "The Revolution: A Manifesto."  It wins FreedomBookClub.com's first annual "Book of the Year" award for 2008.

"Ruwart's book is a tremendous achievement," says Jeremy Furbish, who runs Freedom Book Club:  "It shows how we hurt ourselves
when we aggress against our neighbors through the guns of government."

"Healing" lays out a pro-liberty vision, describing how society *could* look if we were to remove the initiation of force...the force of taxation, of
victimless crime laws, of aggressive warfare and gun control.  Furbish says its emotional impact tipped the scales in a tight race between the two books for first place.  Furbish says he was especially moved by the book's afterward.  In it Ruwart outlines government's role in damaging her sister's health.

"I actually wept when I read this section," he says. 

Dying of cancer, Ruwart's sister ultimately turned to Jack "Dr. Death" Kevorkian, who illegally helped her end her life.

Dr. Ruwart grew up in Michigan and holds a Ph.D from Michigan State University in biophysics (1974). She worked as a pharmaceutical researcher for over twenty years and serves on the board of ISIL, the International Society for Individual Liberty.  She's also a Fully Informed Jury Association activist, working to help remind jurors of their right to ignore judge's instructions when rendering a verdict.   In 2008 she ran for the Libertarian Party's presidential nomination but lost to Georgia congressman Bob Barr.

Other books considered for the prize: "How Capitalism Saved America," by Thomas J. DiLorenzo; "Empire of Debt," by William Bonner and Addison Wiggin, "A Foreign
Policy of Freedom," by Dr. Paul...and a lone fictional tite:  F. Paul Wilson's "By the Sword."

"Healing" has sold out twice on Amazon.com.   The book's currently available in three editions, each one updated for its times.  The 2003 version won this award and is available at Amazon.  The first (1993) edition is downloadable for free at:

NH gun victory could help concealed carriers

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_NhTgXz-q0

A recent gun-friendly outcome in a New Hampshire District Court could have positive implications for those who want to carry a concealed handgun.   Prosecutors at the Manchester District Court dropped both counts of "carrying a concealed handgun without a license" against a Free Stater* who was described by the media as "heavily armed," carrying two loaded handguns and spare loaded magazines, and wearing body armor. The case received television coverage and national publicity via an Associated Press story.

William Walker was defended by attorney Evan F. Nappen of Concord (www.efnappen.com), the Corporate Counsel of the state-wide organization Pro-Gun New Hampshire (www.PGNH.org), and one of its five Directors.  Nappen argued on motion that New Hampshire must honor the man's Virginia concealed carry permit because of the Federal Constitution's "full faith and credit" clause. This is significant because New Hampshire does not officially maintain concealed carry reciprocity with Virginia.  Unlike marriage licenses and driver licenses, state concealed carry licenses are generally honored by other states through reciprocal state-to-state agreements — but Virginia is not among the states listed on the New Hampshire Department of Safety's Web page of such reciprocity agreements,
www.nh.gov/safety/divisions/nhsp/ssb/permitslicensing/plupr.html.

In a plea agreement reached with the State, both counts of "carrying a concealed handgun without a license" were dropped, and all firearms, magazines and accessories ordered returned by the State. Mr. Walker pled "No Contest" to disorderly conduct and a motor vehicle violation. He received a $500 fine with $300 of it being suspended,

It's not clear what will happen to the next person "caught" carrying with only a Virginia permit, but the case serves as an instructional precedent, although not a binding one.  Now there is one more arrow in the legal argument quiver of those who wish to peaceably exercise their gun rights without a New Hampshire carry license.
