Direct Citizen Action

Several years ago, I concluded that the best way to advance liberty was through direct citizen action. That’s the subject of my new book which should be out this fall. When the tea party movement came along, I thought it was a good opportunity to roll out some ideas. My concept was to make a list of “12 steps” you could tape to your refrigerator. Each of the 12 steps is something you could do yourself.

One of the better ideas in the plan is to boycott the business firms that donate money to politicians. This has led naturally to picketing political fundraisers. This is an extremely effective tactic as you catch the adversary by surprise and get them out of their comfort zone. They much prefer to buy and sell influence in private rather than on YouTube.

Anyway, our next event is in downtown Buffalo on Wednesday at 5pm. Stop by and say hello. If you like the 12 steps, you will love No. 13 which is the subject of my new book.
