If Ed Brown dies then so do I.

[ninetales1234]

Someone please tell me when he dies. I cant watch the coverage with what is at stake.

You're very brave my friend, wish I had the cajones you have. Someone applaud this man, his Karma should be thru the roof.

I just gave him -1.
This is an unecessary waste of a life. He's much better off going to Plainfield, defending the Browns from the gov't with force, as I'm sure many others intend to. If he wants to die, he should at least make himself useful.

Seriously, Jay, no life is worth taking. Suicide is bad, and the headline richardr posted will make the libertarian movement look bad.

You mean he's doing something other than whining? 

Yeah, it seems that he's just being an attention addict.
Why are his posts so short? Why won't he go into detail? Maybe he's a fraud, but really we don't know. Suicide is something you should never joke about.

Great, another attention-starved kid creating an anonymous forum account to get off on promising self-immolation or whatnot.  I can certainly relate to it on emotional level, but on a rational level this is a very degrading thing to do, and it degrades the rest of the forum as well.  So, nothing to see here folks!  Move along!

Yes, we are all angry about the state of the nation in general and the Ed Brown situation in particular, each of us in our own way.  Yes, some of us may take constructive action in response.  We all think for ourselves, we all decide our own level of commitment.  This is not a support group, nor is it a place for a pissing contest of baseless radical claims!

agreed.

Hey, I'm not whining.  I support a person's right to commit suicide.  I mean, not my cup of tea, but he's certainly doing more than I am, unless talking about the issue with others now counts as doing

Nope only myspace....We can find out if the goverment cares about the life of one innocent person.

In they kill Ed Brown then have you considered dying in the figurative sense? I would imagine that considering one's self as already dead (or at least dead to the idea of giving a sh!t) that it would be very freeing, and then you could do ALL sorts of stuff that you might not have been able to do before when clinging to life tightly.

Here's my thought on the issue. Doing yourself in as a protest would just eliminate one more freedom lover from the face of the planet. All you've done is saved the Fed's a bullet or two.

Now, I'm not advocating this, however, I think some guys in Iraq have a better plan when they decide to end their life. Militarily that is.

The best option is to stay alive, or go down defending the Browns. No idea where you are, but if you can get to the Brown's, Reno can help you out in defense, I assure you.

[TylerM]

Please don't kill yourself. Of course the government doesn't care about you. The government has enough blood on their hands already; one more drop of blood is insignificant in their eyes, but to God you are precious.

I would recommend a general strike:  See how many of us we can get to stop spending money and try to bring down their economy if they do this bad thing.

Wait! Don't do that! Or at least inform me before so I can pull my stocks out of the market before hand... :p

Killing yourself probably won't do any good, but standing in front of the line of tanks just might.

Or Crown Vics' or Dodge Chargers, etc.

Actually, that would be awesome to blockade the roads with human shields. I wish I was in New Hampshire. I'd block the entrance to the house with my Buick and dare them to trespass.

If your truly willing to die for the Browns go there and assist the Browns.. the feds are not going to care if you kill your self after they kill the browns.  All they care about is there $500,000 or whatever it is that the brown supposedly owe.

However the stupid thing is all the effort there putting into this "case", most likely cost more that what the Browns supposedly own them..  Jumping over dollars to save cents.. the feds aren't to brilliant..  but then again it's the lies that screwed them, because they can't prove there is a legal law so they must uphold the facade to keep the system of lies and fear mongering going otherwise there out of a job.

They basically painted them selfs into a corner. There screwed, they have to make a move or there just saying that the Browns are correct and that would be disastrous to the entire house of cards they have built. ITs the cause and effect , karma , ying and yang or whatever you call it.

If you tell some one a lie long enough most people will think it's a fact... it's vary simple it's called brain washing.. but eventually something will break and cause the downfall of it.

Something doesn't exist if 90% of the people think it does.. Nothing exists until it exists.

It's not even about the money. Before it's all said and done, far more than what the Browns "owe" will have been expended by their kidnapping and/or murder.

As many others have already stated, it's all about power.

Maybe, but the true cost is from the inaction that leads to massive revolt.

What's with your karma, penguins4me?

[Dave Ridley]

maybe i'm missing something but i don't see any reason to ridicule jay mick...maybe he's sincere maybe he's not.   Hopefully we'll never have to find out.

[dalebert]

I believe you have every right to kill yourself but it would be a horrible waste. As a suicide, you'll be barely a blip on the radar screen, quickly forgotten. You obviously believe in liberty with a passion and we need more people like that ALIVE. If you feel passionate enough to die for liberty, think of what good you can do living your life for liberty. If you're willing to sacrifice so much, then their threats have no power against you. You would be a lot more visible as a living activist like the Kannings than as a dead activist that people will talk about for a few days and then forget.

[penguins4me]

What's with your karma, penguins4me?

It's negative. Not something I worry about. Stems in part from the fact that truth hurts, and people don't like being shown that their pet fallacies are what they are. Not that I'm always right, but I can sometimes manage to emulate a broken clock in that regard. Plus, I'm snarky.

Or it could be that I smell funny? O.o

Jay Mick could be helping keep Ed alive.

Jay Mick could be helping keep Ed alive.

That assumes that the government gives a damn about individuals - in which case, none of us would be here.
