- About.Com Guide to Civil Liberties
- Wow! The “Guide to Civil Liberties” covers free speech, gun control, asset forfeiture, privacy, sex, and drugs. The only thing missing is rock and roll, and I probably haven’t looked hard enough. Each article includes the primary sources as well as media sources which are available on the web. Great place to go for information and editorials.
- ACT-Up DC I-59 Information
- In a bizarre move in a democratic country, Congress first made it illegal for Washington, DC, to spend any money tallying votes on Initiative 59, the medical marijuana initiative. Then, when the Board of Elections joined in the ACLU trying to have themselves forced by the courts to release the results, Congress again passed a law, making it illegal for the Board to ask the Courts to do this. This archives the text of and debate on the Barr Amendment.
- Better Than Sex•
- “Confessions of a Political Junkie”. The world ain’t what it used to be, and before this thing is over, you’ll wish you weren’t either. The world ain’t what it used to be, and the nineties are not the summer of love. The myth of Objective Journalism allows evil in politics to flourish.
- Bill of Attainder Project
- Defining what the heck this “bill of attainder” is that the constitution forbids. Originally from Thomas M. Saunder’s now possibly a memorial.
- The Cato Institute
- For individual liberty and peace. The Cato Institute’s support for freedom crosses political boundaries. Everyone finds something to like about them, and everyone finds something to hate. Principle hurts.

- Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail 1972•
- A combination of Thompson’s eagle-eyed reporting and his Burroughs-like ramblings, this book is an incredibly fascinating read, especially if you’re a fan of political thrillers or political history.
- Generation of Swine•
- “Generation of Swine” is not one of Thompson’s best works. But it stands as a brilliant light beckoning through an otherwise Dark Age. These are the Reagan years, the generation that faced Armageddon and decided that Oliver North was the man for the job.

- A Liberal Democrat’s Lament
- “My background is atypical for a somewhat high-profile supporter of the right to keep and bear arms. I am black and grew up in Manhattan’s East Harlem. I remain a 1960s Humphrey Democrat concerned with the plight of those most vulnerable in American society—minorities, the poor, the elderly, and single women—groups whose day-to-day realities are often overlooked in our public policy debates.”
- The Libertarian Enterprise
- L. Neil Smith is never boring. Also, join the “Bill of Rights Enforcement” movement.
- Library of Congress

- This Is Not An Assault• (paperback)
- Liberals who fear a police state will have their fears confirmed, and Conservatives who believe in strong law enforcement should receive a wake up call from “This Is Not An Assault”. It should be required reading for anyone interested in civil liberties--and especially for anyone who believes “it can’t happen here”. (David T. Hardy)
