Why Anti-War Libertarians Should Join Greens in Boycotting and Divesting from Nuclear Weapons

It probably won't do all that much good, given that there don't seem to be all that many libertarians who anti-war enough to do anything to help and are still alive, but I published an article trying to persuade them to boycott and divest from nuclear weapons here.

Here, in this courageous New Englander's refusal to pay his taxes and his choice of jail rather than support a war that would spread slavery's territory into Mexico, I made my first contact with the theory of nonviolent resistance. Fascinated by the idea of refusing to cooperate with an evil system, I was so deeply moved that I reread the work several times.”

What else than 'What is mine, and what is not mine; and permitted to me, and what is not permitted to me.' I must die. Must I then die lamenting? I must be put in chains. Must I then also lament? I must go into exile. Does any man then hinder me from going with smiles and cheerfulness and contentment? 'Tell me the secret which you possess.' I will not, for this is in my power. 'But I will put you in chains.' Man, what are you talking about? Me in chains? You may fetter my leg, but my will not even Zeus himself can overpower. 'I will throw you into prison.' My poor body, you mean. 'I will cut your head off.' When, then, have I told you that my head alone cannot be cut off? These are the things which philosophers should meditate on, which they should write daily, in which they should exercise themselves.”

I witnessed it. […] They completely denied that this happened. […] They used water cannons in 20 degree weather against peaceful protectors, causing instant hypothermia. They also denied that this happened, even though it's on tape. […] They hurled a concussion grenade at an unarmed protector, Sophia Wilansky, completely obliterating her arm. The Morton County Sheriff's Department completely denies having done this. […] The rubber bullets and the concussion grenades have been recovered. They didn't just fall out of the sky, they came from the police force. When the police are blatantly lying, they're no longer the police. And they're certainly not a credible source of information.”
