Paleo-Libertarianism and the Heresies to the Natural Order

No Social Contract in Anglo-Saxon Common Law

Recently, a chum asked me, 'So is the Common Law the fabled "social contract"?'

My response:

'Not quite. Anglo-Saxon Common Law predates the Norman Conquest and was written down in Anglo-Saxon and not Latin. It is one of those germanic bodies of law which was devised privately when rights were based on kinship, i.e. folk right. As such, its basis is in the libertarian aristocracy practised by the Anglo-Saxon nobility, descended from the same Indo-European practice. It was upon this that English Common Law developed. Sadly, but to a lesser extent than other germanic law systems, this was intermingled with Roman Law which was fundamentally statist despite also being developed by private bodies. This was merged with Anglo-Saxon law to become what we know as English Common Law which is, most significantly, the system the US legal system is based upon. Thus, Burke's 'ancient constitution' or 'ancient rights and liberties' of the Englishman and every Englishman's home being his castle.'

I'm back, like Optimus Prime, and I've been busy

I told you I'd be back!

Here's my weekly news breakdown and a discussion of what I've been doing.  Stay tuned for my behind the scenes look at the Property and Freedom Society 2016 held in Bodrum, Turkey; also my podcast is soon due to be broadcast over at ProudBoy Magazine.  I'm pleased to say my articles have been doing well there, especially this response to Prof. Obioma's article in Foreign Policy about why there are no successful black nations.

Apologies For Podcast Delays

I apologise to my viewers who have not seen my weekly podcast for the past fortnight.  I have been busy starting a new job, writing articles for ProudBoy Magazine and conducting some interviews with other sources.  Please check out the Propertarian Institute's podcast to hear a discussion with Curt Doolittle and stay tuned for a behind the scenes look at the Property and Freedom Society of Hans-Hermann Hoppe.  Like Optimus Prime, I will return; for now, sorry.

ProudBoy Magazine launches and yours truly is a columnist

Finally, ProudBoy Magazine has been unleashed and yours truly is a columnist.  The brainchild of comedian and commentator, Gavin McInnes, the theme is the promotion of libertarianism and 'Western Chauvinism'.

So far my articles have been defending the white middle class from attacks by the left.  Some articles will be more comedic and ranty, such as my article about why Star Trek Beyond thought it was necessary was to make Sulu gay and have an on-screen kiss, despite George Takei's protestations; some will be more serious, such as my interview with Prof. Richard Lynn on John McAfee's declaration that libertarians should be ashamed that over 90% of us are white.  Be sure to check the site every week for fresh articles; here is my author's page.

In other news, in the past fortnight I have started a weekly transatlantic news commentary from an anarcho-libertarian perspective.  Please check it out.

Keep supporting my work by liking, sharing, subscribing etc. etc. Every little helps.  Many thanks to my core readers and viewers for the encouragement.

The Libertarian View of Immigration and Borders

Please check out my article over at the Council of European Canadians' blog Ocean Drive on the debate among libertarians as to whether we should support open borders or greater regulation.  The answer is: the third option!

Here is an extract of my interview with Walter Block which inspired this article:
