anarchist, what? all three of those. absolutely. it's funny, i describe myself i'm a libertarian atheist anarchist with realist and -- it may bees it hard for me to -- i spend during the summer i live in aspen, colorado, i have for many years. i don't get invited to many party. i can always do five or ten minutes on sports and weather and nowlet talk about something important. meaningful, interesting. and -- [laughter] basically it turns in to a two things that you're not supposed to talk about. religion and politics. because i like talking about philosophy. what is practical and applied philosophy? it's religion and politics. and of course economics is jumbled up with politics today. which it shouldn't be. we talk about that too, and all of these conventional concrete bound, con stay pated people thinks things way are now should be. >> you refer to your catholicism as a can ballistic. >> i make a joke of cannibalistic. it's not much worse than any other christian religion. at this point. the christian -- this is older and gone thro

>> some protesters feel that the anarchists are undermining their mission. >> you're making a mockeryhing that we're doing. >> please! >> the police declare downtown seattle a no-protest zone and begin chasing demonstrators into residential areas. >> don't [ bleep ] push me. i did not do anything. it's my bike. let go! >> and that was only the first day. as the week goes on, the battles between police and protesters continue, and mark and jeff and the rest of their media group are busy shooting and editing their footage into daily reports. >> we were getting some of the more kind of dramatic stuff happening. the direct confrontations between protesters and police. when you watched the evening news, when you saw the protests happening, the coverage basically told the story that the police were using minimal force, et cetera, and that these people were just crazy out on the streets here and they were just -- they were out to, you know, destroy the city. >> police say it all started with several hundreds protesters against the wto, who had left the downtown area. police also say molotov

we do have some anarchists here. it's been growing. my idea was most of them are herds of cattle. they do their blogging and website in all of this, but they seldom get together to conspire. so my idea is to create freedom sites to physically get together. we don't do any live streaming. you can buy the tapes afterwards, but we want people to physically come here. we've got 2200 people here in planet hollywood and we are growing. >> host: organized libertarianism. >> guest: it is working. >> host: mark skousen, what is your background? >> guest: i am an economist from a group in portland oregon, which was an intellectual town. it has the world's largest bookstore. i've always been an intellectual type, but i also like music and dance and entertainment and sports. similar bit of a renaissance man. worked for the cia. can't talk about that -- and then i got into the financial world and that internet ever since. i have a phd in economics. my family lived in washington d.c., where c-span is. we call it death star. we got tired of the rat race, so we moved the bahamas and lived there f

he was in an anarchist. >> what does that mean?> it meant that people at that time thought existing monarchies was at the attachment of the common man. some and a press -- anarchists were against the system that was topped by the powerful. mckinley had power and he said he had none in effect. he had planned on killing the president early in the year. the king of italy had been murdered. leon would stay up late at night reading newspapers about the death of the king. it may have triggered it. he made plans to kill the president. ironically, the people around mckinley -- the secret service protection and there was one guard at the white house that retired early that night. >> we asked this with the last assassination. this was the third president. >> and this is why we got serious about protecting our presidents. the secret service was busy working on counterfeiters. the president's secretary wanted to cancel the reception at the fair. he worried about such a threat. ironically, leon czolgosz got in and wrapped a gun around a bandage

the prosecution called him a hacker anarchist. this is going to matter because the judge in the case has a lot of discretion. she can either sentence him to time certain set him free, or she can say he will spend the next 136 years behind bars. >> welcome back. the top stories, each of center mcgovern as given -- each of its interim government has given a disperseders to supporters of ousted president mohammed morsi. there have been long lines at polling stations in zimbabwe. the u.s. government has released documents giving more details about its buying programs. the release comes a senior intelligence officials were questioned by legislators about surveillance methods. more on our top story, after the death last friday of several pro-morsi supporters at a rally, the muslim brotherhood was -- theng more public reaction has been muted. we look at why there has been so little concern despite the number of fatalities. >> funerals have been held across egypt. for the of mohammed morsi supporters, there is little sympathy to be found

. >> host: doug casey, if we had to put a label, would it be contrarian, libertarians, anarchists, what? >> guest: it would be all three of those things. it is funny. i describe myself, in our case case -- [inaudible] this makes it very hard for me. during the summer i live in aspen, colorado and i have for many years. i don't get invited to many parties because i can always do five or 10 minutes on sports and weather and i always talk about some important, meaningful, interesting. basically it turns into the two things which are not supposed to talk about. religion and politics. because i like talking about philosophy. but what is practical and applied philosophy? it is religion and politics. of course, economics is so jumbled up with politics today, which it shouldn't be. we talk about that, too. all of these conventional concrete bound people think that things the way they are now is the way they should be. i am not of that opinion. >> host: you refer to catholicism of your use as cannibalistic. >> guest: yes, i make a joke saying he grew up in a cannibalistic death toll, which is ac

competition so in a communist state it's overly regulated there's a lot of competition in let's say our anarchist or capitalism free market utopianism there's all competition and no regulation. those two extremes are the debate of modern economics into the mix introduce a new hybrid a new freak economic model of no regulation and no competition to take the worst elements of the soviet union and the worst elements of the libertarian utopianism like a glenn beck you put those together and you end up with hip replacements costing hundreds of thousands of dollars in a market where people only really care what the cost of a lap dances that's what they want you get fifty believing the only thing you care about is how much is a lap dance cost and i pay one hundred fifty thousand for a hip replacement some other schmucks going to pay for that just give me my lap dance for five bucks that's the great thing about seattle washington by the way they get cheap lap dances if you ever go to seattle that's the only thing you can really look forward to everything else is overpriced dreck and tat so now the part t

it beats the anarchist cookbook.the five" viewers should suggest a reading list for gitmo, start a book share program, can i make a point, during the tease dana was teasing for this segment, said a book of erotica, she said a book of the e word. >> i know. my mom is watching. >> you can't say erotica. >> it is a fine word, not a bad word. e-word, i didn't understand what you were talking about. eric makes a point, how do they get that. >> they have a full library. harry potter. >> the book, harry potter, they think it is about a gardener. >> he looked at me, asked me if they have it. >> maybe they can get pornography, i don't know. >> you want to go there, bob? >> no. >> our soldiers have to be down there, have to guard them, they're dealing with people that have shown violence and have gone on hunger strikes and if providing this, them this book keeps them calm and eating and whatever. >> what kind of book do you call it? e -- >> you're missing the point. >> what is it called? they have a section of it at the bookst

the third group that i have trouble defining --anarchists, activists, anonymous, will sec, 20 somethings that have not talked to the opposite sex in five or six years. [laughter] blessedly, the capacity to do harm is pretty much the way i laid out the taxonomy. governments are by far most confident. criminal gangs are the next layer. then you have this group down here. as bad as governments could be, sooner or later they can be held to account. you have got criminal elements, and they can be pretty dangerous and they are kind of guns for hire, but fundamentally, criminals want to make money. they enter into a symbiotic relation with whatever their target is. and it is a strange creature, a strange parasite in nature who enters into a symbiotic relationship with a host they want to kill or destroy. so i think even criminals are somewhat limited. what worries me is this game down here. right now they are least capable, but you know better than i, the tide is coming in on all the boats in the harbor are coming up. so this group is beginning to acquire capacities for maybe a year or two or t

document in the book the occupy wall street movement anarchist communist marxist socialist anti-american, the islamists from the iranian regime to the brotherhood hamas hezbollah the american islamist groups like care they were cheering for occupy wall street. it's amazing. i couldn't believe it in my research for the book. the supreme leader of iran was giving statements wholeheartedly between -- behind occupy wall street. wall street. am i to judge said i believe it was him who said we are the 99%. i said i think i'm onto something here. when you're writing a book you keep digging and you discover one thing and you go down another rabbit hole and the research took reasoning and what i found it nice that i'm going to research this. i couldn't believe it. i laid out hamas. the iranian regime has the law supporting occupy wall street. they weren't supporting the tea party by the way. at the end of the day i figured it out they share a common enemy despite their differences. they share a hatred of judeo-christian civilization. the enemy of my enemy is a friend and although they disagree on

much like an anarchist would, much like a terrorist would want to, for the sake of preventing americans from seeing a doctor when they're sick. that's so twisted, i can't begin to describe it. >> john: can they be reasoned with? i have to believe the republicans aren't all malice-based. some must realize how much this is hurting the very people they're sworn to protect. >> no, in fact, they're drenched in their own mish goss. they hear the same lies and it is a giant echo chamber that has nothing to do with planet earth any longer. they believe obamacare will increase the deficit when it decreases the deficit. they believe obamacare will take away people's insurance when it doesn't take away people's insurance. they believe it is a government takeover, single payer system. it is not a single payer system. my god, we would have to make this interview two hours at least if i was going to recount all of the lies stuck inside their skulls. >> john: we cover them relentlessly here, alan. i don't want to call them stupid. i call them embissell americans. before i go, i want to ask what have y

. >> and harry reid talked about modern anarchist and these are the people who don't believe in governmentnd attacking that and not just the comment about the president's cultural racial background, it brings up in a area that is not helpful for finding common ground and respect for one side or the other in the political policy discussion that needs to be had in washington, brad? >> i don't blame the democrats for the stupid comments for harry reed. i do think that the president should put out a comment saying it is racist speech and the president has an obligation to push back against one of his own when they make outrageous equipmentive comments. it is not helpful to the governing. >> here is the problem. if the president weighs in all he does pile on and lead to more ridiculous waste of time and oxygen on a conversation that will not lead to solution. i prefer the president who did a very good job of not playing the victim and not complaining that his problems as president or opposition is because of the race. >> all right. yeah, you don't remember the discussions based on condoleezza r

influential ever since especially even more so with terrorist organizations because terrorism as the anarchisthad said propaganda by the deed even more than guerrilla warfare think it is about selling a public relations point for a osama bin on in the most famous terrorist of our age went so far to say that the media war is $0.94 of waging jihad the emphasis was not on the battlefield but on the perception he could foster among his enemies. the very fact media and public opinion has become so incredibly important put a great power the united states the specially a great democratic power at a disadvantage. said you look at what has changed and as part of the book we did a day debate -- a database that is included as the appendix and what we found the with rate has gone up prior to 1945 the insurgents when about 20 percent of the war's been since 1945 they went about 40% so that rate is roughly doubled. what accounts for that? i say the power of public opinion in the ability of relatively weak groups to bring down strother adversaries so that is something they try to do sometimes successfully. b

when people start revving things up, like the tea party, they get labeled as anarchists and crazy peopleause there is an establishment of those who want to maintain the status quo and those who want to maintain their power and grow their power and grow their intrusiveness and they don't want anyone thinking about it. my parents got divorced early on. that was devastating. some of you have been through that and you know what i'm talking about. if anyone out there thinking about getting a divorce and your children, please think about it again. please ask yourself, am i being selfish? because, you know, this is the same person, most of this is secondary to selflessness and they start thinking about this and this is a food for thought. my mother didn't have a lot of choice because she discovered my father was a bigger mess. though she was faced with the prospect of raising two young sons, with little money and little education, we ended up moving to boston to live with her older sister and brother-in-law. a typical tenement. both of my older cousins whom we loved were killed. and i never exp

terrorist campaign in the united states in the early 20th century carried out mainly by italian anarchistsand communists who had different points blew up dozens and up to 100 bombs across united states targeting people like the attorney general of the united states a mitchell palmer and numerous public officials across the country at the time. people had a reaction at that point. they said we can't have this type of thing. this is a new experience. this was at a time when communists were marching across the world and having success in europe and eastern europe and the chaos in the soviet union. these people were seen as an extension of that and we needed to close their borders to block the sale. that is not different than what we hear today about islamic terrorism and other issues like that. but what is even more astonishing is how a lot of our immigration policy makes it easier for national security threats to exist, makes it easier for these problems to grow in a lot of cases increase the ability of the national security threats in these opponents of liberty across the world to more expl

next is derek anarchist in the d.c. public library and has held this position since 2008.he manages the archives made up of over 250 collections document in the rich, political, social history of washington, d.c.. he's also responsible for the care and management of the d.c. public archives. he's held positions at the archives in new york university and the historical society in flushing new york. prior to his arrival at the d.c. public library, derrick worked at the library of virginia in richmond as a researcher could best for six years. he's one of the four co-authors of angels of deliverance, the underground railroad and beyond. derrick grinned a bachelor's degree in history from virginia state university in 1998 and both the masters in history and library with a concentration in archives from the state university of new york at albany jennifer krafchik is the director of the kepplinger research library at the historical society in washington, d.c.. so she didn't have to walk far to get here. before joining the society, she worked at the headquarters of the historic na

you can't work for the federal government and then go home and be a violent communist anarchist.or action. >> we must have action. this is appalling! again, whether it goes in favor of the conservative scenario or the liberal scenario, i don't care. i'm in the militant middle. this is an obvious case of someone who has exceeded in an egregious ways the boundaries of what is appropriate when you're in the employment of the federal government. >> brian: we'll watch this weekend to get more of that passion. >> you're going to see something that is stop and frisk has been dealt an awful blow. i grew up in -- spent a lot of my formative years in this city. i remember the bad old days. stop and frisk helped make new york the safest big city on earth. now the city council has overridden the mayor's veto and it shows what could be in store in the post-bloomberg era in this town and other cities across this country if police are stripped of their ability to be aggressive in the combating of violent crime. >> brian: you're on fire! >> ainsley: thank you. >> brian: by the way, by the second

i'm not an an anarchist. that's correct. this notion that you're for small government,or to no government, never bought. there are things i would like to see to continue to be -- i don't want any new bans. but i have -- had marijuana been legal for the last 50 years i would have said nothing, but to introduce it as a new innovation, it will only have a dill deleterious effect on society. awoman wrote a thoughtful letter. she loves my show. was extremely lauder to but she said she has marijuana every night. she smokes marijuana every night. and she has two kids, a husband, you know, she is -- has all these wonderful values and i believe her. i wrote her back this. i said, you know, i smoke a cigar and a pipe. i have since high school. and i have smoked in front of my children from birth. they're very healthy, incidentally. they don't appear to be dying of second hand smoke anymore i am from my parents' second hand smoke. i said i'm curious. would you smoke your marijuana in frontoff our children like i smoke my cigar? i didn'

and then, finally, this third group that i really have trouble defining, anarchists, activ anonymous, 20-somethings who haven't talked to the opposite sex in five or six years, okay? [laughter] blessedly, the capacity to do harm is pretty much the way i laid out the taxonomy. governments are by far most competent, criminal gangs, the next layer, and then you've got, you've got this group down here. and that's kind of good, because as bad as governments could be, sooner or later governments can be held to account. you've got criminal elements, and they could be pretty dangerous and, you know, they're kind of guns for hire, but fundamentally criminals want to make must be. make money. and they enter into a symbiotic relation with whatever their target is. and it's a strange creature, a strange parasite in nature who enters into a symbiotic relationship with a host that they want to kill or destroy. and so i think even criminals are somewhat limited. what worries me is this gang down here. blessedly, right now they're least capable. but you know better than i that the tide's coming in, a

because terrorism, as the anarchist set in 19th century is, propaganda by deed. even more than guerrilla warfare, terrorism is really about selling a public relations point. in fact, osama bin laden, obviously the most famous terrace of our age, went so far as to say that the media war is 90% of waging jihad. he place the emphasis not on battlefield attacks but on the perception that he could foster among his enemies. now, the very fact that meeting has becomthemedia has become son the very back of public opinion has become so incredibly important puts a great power like the united states, especially a great democratic powers like the united states, at a disadvantage. something very interesting comes up when you look at what's changed in guerrilla warfare, and as part of this book we did a database of insurgencies in 1775, which in is included as an appendix. what we found was that the wind weight for insurgents have gone up since 1945. prior to 1945, the insurgents won about 20% of their wars. since 1945, about 40% of their wars. so the win rate has roughly doub

was a profile at the time for potential assassins of western leaders, based that eastern european anarchists had killed a number of leaders throughout europe and have warned leaders of the west that they would be next. and the profile was the person when you got to the ethnic and racial component would be swarthy, tall, and with exotic facial hair. when he said this was a guy out for a day, he did not fit the profile. he looked like anybody else. boss, he had a decoy. what do you mean? right behind him, a tall man, swarthy, and had a long mustache, exotic facial hair. by all means, find him. we have good news, bad news. what is the good news? the good news is we found the tall, swarthy man with a mustache. what is the bad news? how do i say this? that is constable big jim parker, who tackled the a light-skinned black man. it is not as if the world did not know who constable jim parker was the next day. because newspapers were like cnn now. keep running the same story until it stops selling. for a week the president was surviving, there was an update every day, morning and night, and there wa

i'm not an an anarchist. that's correct. this notion that you're for small government,or to no government, never bought. there are things i would like to see to continue to be -- i don't want any new bans. but i have -- had marijuana been legal for the last 50 years i would have said nothing, but to introduce it as a new innovation, it will only have a dill deleterious effect on society. awoman wrote a thoughtful letter. she loves my show. was extremely lauder to but she said she has marijuana every night. she smokes marijuana every night. and she has two kids, a husband, you know, she is -- has all these wonderful values and i believe her. i wrote her back this. i said, you know, i smoke a cigar and a pipe. i have since high school. and i have smoked in front of my children from birth. they're very healthy, incidentally. they don't appear to be dying of second hand smoke anymore i am from my parents' second hand smoke. i said i'm curious. would you smoke your marijuana in frontoff our children like i smoke my cigar? i didn'

, and when people start revving things up a little bit, like the tea party, they get labeled as anarchistsand crazy people because there is an establishment consistenting of democrats and republicans, who want to maintain the status quo, main tape their power, and to grow their power and to grow their intrusiveness, and they won't want anybody to say anything about it. that's really what's a lot of political correctness is all about. you'll read about that in great detail in my newest book, but, you know, i had this tremendous dream of becoming a doctor, but there were problems along the way, not the least of which the fact my parents got divorced early on. that was devastating. some of you have been through that. you know what i'm talking about. if anybody out there is thinking about a divorce and you have children, please, think about it again. please, ask yourself, wait a minute, am i being selfish? it's the same perp that you loved and adored not too long ago, and most divorce is just selfishness. people start thinking about themselves and not about the unit. not about the family, not
