Libertarian Scholar Calls Athena’s Columns “Excellent”
A Virginia Reader Says Seized
Peanut Butter A Great Example of “Anarcho-tyranny”

Re: Joe
Guzzardi’s Blog:
Peanut Butter Confiscated In The Name Of National
Security
Guzzardi’s
experience is a perfect example of what
Sam Francis called "Anarcho-tyranny."
My wife and I saw
it in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, where the police went
after unleashed
dogs, almost always owned by moneyed yuppies.
Meanwhile,
urban youths could pelt the same
dogs and their owners with rocks and not be
bothered.
Confronting the
yuppies—and going after peanut butter—is easier because
yuppies are always going to obey and travelers have no
choice.
“Anarcho-tyranny”
gives authorities a satisfied feeling.
