Policy and Analysis
Our Mission
The Patriot Post's mission is to advocate for Essential Liberty, the restoration of constitutional limits on government and the judiciary, and to promote free enterprise, national defense and traditional American values. Our objective is to provide Patriots across our nation with a touchstone of First Principles through brief, informative and entertaining analyses of relevant news, policy and opinion from reputable research, advocacy and media organizations, so they may better support and defend those Principles, and enlist others to join our ranks." —Mark Alexander, Publisher
The Patriot Post is not sustained by any political, special interest or parent organization, and we accept no advertising. Our mission and operations are funded entirely by the voluntary financial support of Patriots like you!
What liberals do not understand (to be fair: most conservatives don't understand this either), is that when you concede to the government the ability to punish your enemies those exact same powers can be used against you when the party in power changes.
Aside from my philosophical libertarianism, this is the PRACTICAL reason why I oppose drug prohibition, even though I think most drug use is beyond stupid. If "my" guy can throw hippies in prison for possessing a "bad" plant, then "their" guy can imprison me for possessing some "bad" gun.
