I think the events at Sandy Hook probably actually happened, but what worries me is the changing details on all the mainstream news stories. (ie, did he shoot down the door or did the school let him in?) I say this not because it really matters, but because the liberals can mess with small details to produce the "story" they want, even if

That's not Swanson; that's Offerman. But Offerman is dead to me, for sure.

@Autolykos: I asked whether you saw any (necessary) limit(s) to bureaucratic discretion. You replied that you didn't see any universal or objective limit to it.

Even if the classical liberals associated with the left, that doesn't mean they were left wing. In reality, their positions coincided with the right wing renegades, seeing that the commies were the ones who won the French revolution. Because most of the French revolution lefties wanted a socialist state, I will consider the classical liberals to

Well that's true Neodoxy, I do reject Rothbard's analysis of the "old left." I think he was simply confused about the origin of the terms, which came about during the time of the french revolution. Basically, the pinkos won a progressive revolution to institute a radical leftist government, and the right-wingers of the time were counterrevolutionaries
