Good news libertarians! It's a crazy guy! That's right Ron Paul, your new most famous disciple is the now deceased 36-year-old John Patrick Bell, the wack job who shot those guys at the Pentagon. The scary thing is that a lot of the things that this guy says, while controversial, have some merit. He had his physics degree from Cal and ran his own technology firm with the revolutionary goal of creating a USB drive that performs personal DNA sequencing. He was eccentric, but a real smart guy. You can read his libertarian blog here! This story kind of creeps me out, but I'll print it anyway because I love radical libertarians so very much.
The guy went about it all wrong, but I really think he had reached his limit of bullshit from the government. Yes the man was smart but also a little crazy. He had to of known he was going to be shot and killed for what he tried to pull. And just what was he trying to do anyways? I am not sure what he was trying to accomplish. I know its frustrating when a government which has over stepped its boundaries and expanded its powers way beyond where the Constitution would allow it has pushed for some of the largest power grabs ever in the past 2 years. It is frustrating when lawmakers don't listen to the people and think they know what is best. The intelligent and well informed of this country are the minority and it seems that this guy just wanted to be heard. I guess he was out of options when it seemed there was nothing else for him to do while watching the current President attempt to shred the Constitution than to sacrifice himself. He should not have done it. The people who still believe in a Capitalistic society and the liberties given to us by the Constitution of the United States of America need educated and influential people like this guy. The movement in the fight against big government control over our lives took a hit when he went crazy and martyred himself. Poor guy.
