Gee, I feel flattered by that generous reaction! Not much substance, but still, the effort is there.

Re, from your posted article: "Americans who gripe about big government and high taxes, who believe the state that governs best governs least, would love Yemen. The central government controls the beautiful old capital, Sana, and a chunk of turf to its south and west. Beyond that is a delicate balancing act with local sheiks."

Unfortunately for this author, the above is at best the joke it initially appears to be. A joke based in tom-foolery. Naturally, Americans who believe "the state that govern best, governs least" aren't in the main, anarchists; They typically believe in a state that governs. Yemen, as the author stipulates, practically does not govern. That's all I need Ray(nudge nudge), is more anarchy in my life! LOL....I don't THINK so!(Credit to Marshall Fritz, Libertarian).

After recognizing this, and the mess of little dictators(mobs?) slaughtering fellows and shooting tires, as freely as no more than whim and keen knowledge of local color together allow, the rest of this anti-gun argument rests only in fancy and slander.

Freedom Works,
