Marx Reloaded - Jason Barker

Thomas Jefferson:
"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."


"There are no circumstances imaginable, not even victory, under which the proletariat should give up its possession of arms." -- Karl Marx

The freedom of man is, in political liberalism, freedom from persons, from personal dominion, from the master; the securing of each individual person against other persons, personal freedom.
Max Stirner 
 If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.
Henry David Thoreau 
The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.
Frederick Nietzsche 

Freedom without Socialism is privilege and injustice and Socialism without freedom is slavery and brutality. 
- Mikhail Bakunin 

From reading other posts from other blogger I see that many contend that a romantic relationship is often hard to pursue and will often have unfortunate side effects. I think that despite the challenges engaging in a relationship with another human presents I think that one should take the risk and try to establish a relationship with another human being. I think that one should take the risk rather than just being afraid to engage in a relationship.
