    Issue 1,182 of L. Neil Smith’s THE LIBERTARIAN ENTERPRISE is now up

    L. Neil Smith’s THE LIBERTARIAN ENTERPRISE

    — An International Journal of Opinion —

    Issue 1,182, November 13, 2022

    https://ncc-1776.org/

    THIS ISSUE’S MOTTO: zan, zindiqi, azadi (women, life, freedom) — Motto of Iranian protesters.

    THE WEEKLY CARTOON: I get most of my exercise from shaking my head in disbelief.

    A Request for Help

    Jim Davidson, a long-time contributor to TLE, is currently awaiting trial on extended traffic related charges. See his early October article on the status of his case, [Due Process of Law] (https://ncc-1776.org/tle2022/tle1176-20221002-05.html). Since then he has retained an attorney. The attorney usually charges $2,000 to start; there may be more, possibly $10,000.

    The next event in Jim’s case is a preliminary hearing on November 17.

    Jim maintains his innocence with respect to the charges, and while the Libertarian Enterprise will not comment on the particulars of the situation, we do believe that everyone is owed a fair trial and the ability to retain a lawyer. To that end, we have set up a GiveSendGo page. Jim, and we, would be extremely grateful for any help our readers would be able to kindly provide.

    Jim offers a free copy of his new book in consideration of donations of $25 or more.

    https://givesendgo.com/G3DA3

    Donations will show up as “Rule of Law,” and will be directed to an account in Cathy’s name which will then be provided to counsel.

    Thank you

    Yours in Liberty,

    Rylla and Cathy Smith
    Co-Publishers, L. Neil Smith’s The Libertarian Enterprise
